John was born and raised in Niagara Falls, N.Y. He was an avid hiker, and loved taking trips to walk trails all throughout Western Pennsylvania. John was a fan of all Pittsburgh sports teams, especially University of Pittsburgh Basketball and his beloved Pittsburgh Steelers. He loved learning and continued taking classes at the University of Pittsburgh even during his later years. John was an outgoing, faithful, and selfless man who was always willing to put others before himself.
