I just read the message on John's facebook wall, written by his wife Diane
You will be missed John. You were a great and funny guy.

RIP
Sandra

I've been dreading this announcement... thanks for letting us know, Sandra.

I liked John. He had a mind for words (in multiple languages) and he sure loved his music. I also appreciated his devotion to PGMusic, and his willingness to counter misconceptions voiced by newbies to the forum.

Put my name on the list of people who will miss John. He made me laugh.

Dear Sandra,

Thank you for letting us know.

That's really sad news. John's wit was unparalleled. Like Pat, he made me laugh too. I used to love reading his posts. He was also a guy who knew how to walk on the sunny side of the street even though it was pouring with rain all around.

Rest in peace, John.

Sadly, I just read this on Facebook as well. John's wit and always-positive outlook will be greatly missed.

We also shared a lot of personal back-and-forth about brass instruments and the Kanstul company, as John was a baritone horn player.

Sad news. The world has lost a great wit.

Flights of angels sing thee to thy rest, John. You will be missed.

John had interesting philosophies and I always read what he had to say. He preserved under great health pressures and often just laughed at himself. He knew the odds, but kept trying to do all the things he loved. Fare thee well.

I always enjoyed my verbal sparring with John. He was an excellent wit and wonderful with words in many languages. He will be sorely missed. My thoughts turn now to his devoted wife, Diane, and to his daughters. He always brightened my day. RIP CCCC! (Crazy Cantankerous Canuck Conley).

John,

You made me laugh even when I had no idea what you were talking about - which was about half the time. I have no doubt that is the case with the angels that surely surround you now.. RIP John Conley.

One of the last postings was in regards to his "last" trip
covering the factory, with photo's of the workers, friends
etc.
Even with his extreme problems, he shared this part of his life.

R.I.P. John Conley

That cat reminded me of the song, "ALL OR NOTHING OR ALL...WON'T BE CAUGHT IN THE UNDERTOW"...

Extremely bright and sarcastic at times, but I dug that Canadian Cat...I believe he was also born near
where my Grandady...One of Teddy Roosevelt's Rough Riders...who gained his American Citizenship and the opportunities USA offered to thousands of Canadians....

Anyway, I always had a softspot in my heart for that ol' carmudgeon!!

John, you seemed to basically never miss a beat out of this short but busy life...one who truly knew to "live it every day, baby!

Enjoy the big band in the sky....there's certainly ALWAYS A PLACE FOR A COOL AND DETERMINED HORN PLAYER!

John was a "one off"!.............with a wonderful, oblique, sense of humour. He was very helpful to me, through this forum.
He dearly loved his music, and he'll be sadly missed by many of us. So sorry to hear about this, and my thoughts are for his family. Joe G.

Aw man.... I enjoyed John SO much..... fly on the prayer-fueled wings of angels, John. You were a great role model to those who had challenges and might have otherwise given up.

RIP


I smashed the hell out of my car today. When the cops came I told him "Officer, that guy was BOTH texting and drinking a beer." The cop said "Sir, he has every right to do that. I mean, it's HIS living room..."
