I remember a great picture of John with his daughter regarding soccer. Always liked John as a fine colleague at Tasc.

Janet, Jay, Teri, Jennifer and Sean,
My sincere condolences. In a nutshell, John was 100% Beavercreek soccer. However, he was also a husband, a father, grandfather and mentor. He affected the lives of countless kids (and parents) he coached and mentored over the years. I am sorry to not be there in person. I will pay my respects the next time I am back in Beavercreek. The Burk family sends our love and our prayers. Love you all. Chris

John was the nicest guy. He stopped by my office at TASC/NGC from time to time and we would chat. I remember he loved his family and was so into his soccer coaching. I'm sure he will be greatly missed. Rest in peace John.

I worked for John in the B-52 program office and he was a major influence in my final promotion. He was an absolute joy to share 'war' stories with and I still look back on those days as some of my best out of 22 years in the AF.

So sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a friend and great mentor during our time working together at Wight-Patterson, and shared many laughs with him at lunches, and at our Friday Breakfast club. He was good people. Prayers and sincere condolences to Jan and the entire Guiliano family.
