It was a joy and privilege to serve as John' Pastor. Most of all, it was a joy to call him my friend. To this day, every time we have linguini and clam sauce, I think of John. Heaven is a more wonderful place today because John is there.

I worked with John at the Everett shops,MBTA. It seems like a short time since he retired. He was truly a pleasure to work with. We had a lot of fun with "Mazz". Condolences to the family for their great loss.
