Remembering John Donnelly: Club Stories, Friendship, and a Reminder to Get Your Affairs in Order

Dan dedicates the episode as a tribute to his friend John Donnelly, who passed away last week. He recalls meeting John in the early 2000s through the Binder Bulletin forum, traveling with the Oregon group to the Northwest Binders gathering, and helping found an Oregon International/Scout club where John served as president and became a welcoming, energetic center of club events, camping trips, and work parties. Dan describes John’s big personality, love of storytelling, and enthusiasm for unique vehicles and hobbies. Dan announces a memorial on May 16 at 10:00 AM at the Methodist Church in Woodburn, and urges listeners to document wishes and clearly identify projects to reduce burdens on family members.The Binder Boneyard Podcast is hosted by Dan Hayes and produced by Bradley Parsons. Music by Bradley ParsonsSupport the show on Patreon:www.patreon.com/thebinderboneyardpodcastFollow The Binder Boneyard on social media:Instagram: @thebinderboneyardFacebook: The Binder Boneyardwww.thebinderboneyard.comwww.trainsoundstudio.com
