Hi Ken,
I saw Steve Jobs in the news and it prompted me to wonder what’s up with John and Ken Williams. I searched for John but didin’t find much and searched on you and found this website. I believe my brother Eric (fondly known as “our little Eric”) was your second employee after John. I dated John for a couple of years but we eventually went our separate ways. Eric is working for Yahoo in Mountain View area. I am living in Hawaii working as a real estate appraiser and algae research for making biodiesel. I did work in the California wine industry for 15 years after finishing college.
What amazing times those were at the start of the company, then On-Line Systems. I don’t really know where to start or go with this. I wanted to say hello and hope you and Roberta are well. Please pass the same to John for me and feel free to give him my email.Aloha,

Great to hear from you. I wondered whatever happened to you. I’m happy to hear your life seems to have turned out well. I’ll mention to John that you posted .. I’m sure he’ll also be curious to hear how you’re doing. John ran big chunks of Sierra’s marketing all the way through to when it was sold in 1996. He then worked on a dot-com making software for gas pumps. The company was acquired, and he is still with it working for a giant gas pump manufacturer. He has now been married 20+ years (gads — it’s scary to think it has been that long!) and has two little girls.
Roberta and I have been retired for nearly a decade, and are enjoying life as deadbeats (I’m typing this from poolside in St Tropez).
Enjoy Hawaii!

Hi Ken,
Thanks for getting back to me. Congratulations on being “dead beats”. I knew the company would do well.
I was married once and had another long term relationship but have been single for the last three years. Great to hear John has been married with a couple kids.
If you and Roberta (or John) ever get to Hawaii, give me a call or email. Email me and I will send my phone number at Lynnrgy@alohabroadband.com. I’m on the Big Island and live about an hour south of Kailua-Kona. It would be great to see you again, it’s been a long time.
Aloha,
Lynn
