His passions drove him. His passions brought all of us together. He made an impact on each and everyone of us. John, as humble as you would be to receive this award, it is deserved. Think Snow!

Soo glad he is being honored like this.
He had big impact on some life decisions I've made and has had a big impact on the U.P and snowmobilers from all over. Awesome to see this

This is very cool. It's quite an honor and something that is earned, not given. Well deserved John, well deserved.

too bad they couldn't designate the newly reopened lake linden trail the John Dee Memorial Trail, also on honor of his committment to the sport and the U.P.
