    Johnny Guest, retired TX lawman, shooter, and former TFL and THR moderator, is gone.

    Johnny had been in declining health for some years, and recently spots had been found on his lungs.

    I met Johnny on the old KTOG mail list, 25 years ago.

    Goodbye, Tio.

    I'm very sorry to hear that.

    Same thought I had. I put both of those men in the same class of fine people.
