People named John Gledhill

JL Gledhill, electrical engineer, custom robot designer, animated film maker, tree grafter, gardener, was loved by all. I never heard him say one negative word about a fellow human being in my lifetime. He lived at 1610 Taylor in North Beach San Francisco for many years with his girlfriend Liz. He spent the last years of his life back at the family ranch where he kept the old place in repair, re-roofing, rewiring, painting the old barn, and having a new well put in due to the diminishing water table caused by over population and lack of proper conservation. John loved animals too, especially the farm cats, and he built owl boxes for the wildlife. He could canoe, and fish, and hunt as well. Once I brought my son Vito to visit my mom at the other end of the property, and I woke up about 4 am as usual. My son and my mom were still sleeping, so I walked the long distance up Apricot Lane, down Dillard, and down Plum Lane to see if Johnny was up--he was usually an early riser, too. The house was dark, and I need to use the bathroom. I thought, well, no one is around, I could just pee in the vineyard near the house. I would just see if John was awake first. I walked to the back of the old farm house to the window of John's room, the room Auntie Ed (short for Edvigia) used to inhabit, the room closest to the vineyard. I tapped lightly on the window with my fingernail. In a second or so I heard a step, then a creak of floor boards, then "Khu Khu!" the sound of a shot gun getting cocked. I dropped to my knees under the window: "John, John, it's me Deb!" then I walked quickly to the back door. He opened it, holding the shot gun end up against his shoulder, his tall, lanky form lit from the porchlight. "Want some oatmeal?" he said calmly, sporting a half smile. "I sure as hell don't need coffee now John--you woke me the F up!" John replied, "There is that unmistakable report of a shotgun that rarely makes me have to deliver it." This story is only matched by the time when I, perhaps 14 years old, visited Uncle John in North Beach where he had me put on a blindfold, walked me down the steep hill of Taylor and stopped at a spot below. He removed the blindfold and pointed to the sign on the bookstore: "This is your Mecca." City Lights Bookstore, intiated by the late great Alan Ginsberg and other Beat Poets, stands today as a multi floor, multi perspective bookstore, a part of the heart of San Francisco for more than 70 years. Thank you, Uncle Johnny, for all of the wonderful memories. Love and Peace, Deb Cat
