From the transcript

That was from John Roberts, who couldn't be with us today. I have just a few words to say myself. And again, my name is John Beckler, and I flew here in Alaska with Greg for a little over 10 years. We both flew at Palmer Forestry here, and I'm very, very honored to have flown with him as much as I did.
