John Celmer Passes
The class of 67 has lost another member of its treasured brotherhood.
John fought a long and vigorous fight with throat cancer. His struggle ended on June 20th.
He left Buffalo a few years back and opened a dry cleaning business in Atlanta. Shortly thereafter John was diagnosed with cancer. For the past two years he battled the disease and the disease battled him.
John’s wit and affable nature made him one- of-a-kind. He could charm a wolverine if he put his mind to do so. Give him a beer and a a topic to discuss and an evening would pass in a flicker
To invoke Hamlet, John was indeed, “A fellow of infinite jest and excellent fancy”.
In his death a little piece of us dies with him.
