Hans Jorgen (John) Bentzen, 87, of Friday Harbor, WA passed peacefully away at his home with his loving and devoted wife, Gloria by his side.  He was born June 29, 1933 in Gentofle, Denmark, the son of Knud and Nora (Bruun) Bentzen.   It is with profound sadness we say goodbye to John, and honoring his wishes, there will be no memorial service.  Raise a glass to John's valiant Viking spirit in remembrance of all the wonderful gatherings we shared during his amazing life.  Gloria would like to thank Dr. Gunderson, San Juan Island E.M.S., MedEvac San Juan Island and Hospice of the Northwest who supported John in his epic, courageous journey.
