There was not a nicer, friendlier person. He (Barnes) would hold a Christmas party put on by him and his staff that everyone in the courthouse would go to.

There was nobody more deserving.

I don't know what differently you can do with security because at times, there are 250 to 400 inmates brought to the courthouse every day,

Most of my contact with John is at the block party we have every summer and our Christmas party. John is a good guy. He is always working on his house -- like a lot of people in the neighborhood.

Life is short. If I didn't have the defibrillator, I would have been dead at the Christmas party three years ago. How lucky am I?
