You need not agree. He is unafraid to display his bias, and readers are welcome to share their own as well.<\/p>\n<p>But John&#8217;s been writing as well about the joys of retirement. Perhaps you&#8217;ll relate to them. John lately has been telling readers of his journey through the pain of mourning the loss of his wife, Kathy Anne, to cancer.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t be afraid to comment, telling John when he&#8217;s spot on or when he&#8217;s off the mark. Don&#8217;t worry, no offense will be taken &#8212; but all kudos will be welcomed. You might even get a response. If you&#8217;re so inclined, there might be some &#8220;conversation&#8221; worth having.<\/p>\n<p>John married the girl of his dreams in 1971. They produced two nearly perfect sons &#8212; Peter and Nathan &#8212; and are the proud grandparents of two fine young men, Dylan and Logan, and of little Emma Nicole.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=jkanelis\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John Kanelis has been a career journalist who worked in print journalism for 36 years until the end of August 2012.
