I’ve told this story a few times already but I’ll share it again. My dad met John in Vegas. John was shooting Craps and my dad came up to him and said “I’m a big fan. I just wanted to say thanks for all of the laughs and keep up the good work.” John asked my dad if he wanted an autograph or a picture and my dad said “Oh nay nay.” John then gave my dad a hug.

He really worked so hard for years to lose weight, and he was wildly successful. His last interview was with a husband and wife who have a radio talk show in, I believe, L.A. it was probably a week or so before he passed away. Even THEY didn't recognize him, he had done such a great job losing weight. Next thing we all knew, John was gone. 😔 After one of his performances here in Cleveland, as he was walking past, I said, "John, thank you." He was still walking by, but he looked over his shoulder, and I said, "sincerely." He turned around and said, "Thank you." A lot of comedians are kinda similar to each other. The great ones are unique, and always will be. John was a great comedian. 😔
