John was a mentor of mine back at the Daily News in 1980. We later crossed paths a time or two as lawyers. He was a smart man and a gentle soul. I am sorry to learn of his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

John was an amazing attorney. He was quiet but strong and fierce in his representation and served his clients with honor and respectability. I enjoyed having cases with John and the legal community shall miss him and his contributions.

John was the true definition of a gentleman and a scholar. It was my pleasure to work with him during his legal profession. He was always kind and handled cases in a civil matter. I am so sorry for your loss. Your family will continue to be in my prayers.
