To the city of Indianapolis, he was a booming radio voice. Big John Gillis gave the helicopter radio reports every morning, guiding people safely into work. To me, he was a pet daddy. Our conversations were more about the animals we loved. And, for a big guy - he was a softy! It was always a pleasure to have him help out at the Humane Society's Paws and Remember Memorial Ceremony, sharing a letter that he wrote to Benny on the day that he died. A letter that, after a thousand readings, still makes me cry,...
