Please except my deepest Sympathy and prayers, I grew up with John and shared many memories in grammar school and in all my home rooms through out High School. He was always smiling. Last time I saw him was in IHOP with his Mom about 6 yrs ago. He was a devoted son.

I am lucky have countless memories of John. As a close friend of the Sicora family, he was like a big brother to me too. He had a wonderful sense of humor and smiles came easy to him.

John was a funny, loyal, dear, sweet man. We were very lucky to have known him and will miss him. He had a great sense of humor and we will always laugh when we think of the song he wrote "Pork and Beans". He so loved his family and we send our thoughts and deepest sympathy to them. Rest in Peace JS. You were loved.

Our condolences go out to Irene, Eloise and the rest of John’s family and friends. He was a thoughtful person and a good friend who we will greatly miss. Things won’t be the same without him but it’s comforting to know that our fellow Yankees fan made it safely into home.

John was an extraordinarily good and decent person. A far better person than me. He was a good, good man. I could not be more sorry that he passed.
