John was a top salesman in the carpet industry and spent most of his free time dancing, competing, judging, emceeing, and just being friendly to everyone. John was truly blessed with a gift … and he was extremely willing to share that gift with anyone that was interested. He cultivated many dancers that went on to become top competitors, teachers, judges and those that would simply possess that same passion he had for dancing.
John mastered all the dances developing a smooth and effortless style and won many, many contests. He possessed total and complete joy for this activity.
One of John’s visions was to bring all of the dance forms together onto one floor to share and exchange the joy of dancing. In 1989 Michelle Kinkaid & John started the 2nd Sunday Swing Dance. Sadly, John passed away only 3 months after the start of this dance. He
would be pleased to know that his vision has become a reality.
