JD was easy going, inventive and smart. He accepted others for who they are and liked being a part of a group, but was equally happy being on his own or standing back and observing the crowd.

His capacity to retain and grow a grain of knowledge that interested him was remarkable. He’d remember the subtlest detail within a plot or quickly pick up a sound or song he heard years prior and expound upon it.

JD had a diversity of interests which had him sometimes living in a self-made time warp, intent on his vision which he wasn’t shy to share to invite others to join in on his enthusiasm.
