Not sure what to say?

John was a key part of that successful NBC run in the 1990s - personally and professionally. He welcomed me into that group and was a mentor during that time. I'm sorry that both he and Joanne are gone too soon. My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

John was a mentor, a colleague and a friend. I have so many fond memories. I could go to him for tough business advise or just to share a laugh. He was a tough executive, a tough negotiator but he never lost sight of what was important in life, your family, your friends and having fun!

I have the fondest memories of John, as a mentor, as a friend, as a business colleague. I've shareed tough times at NBC but I've also had the good fortune to share many laughs with him. He was the consummate professional who never forgot to have fun along the way!

So very sorry to hear of Cousin John's passing. Deepest sympathy to his sons, John and Anthony, as well as his grandchildren. May perpetual light shine upon him. Rest in Peace.

The world will be a less vibrant place without John. I will be forever grateful to him for giving me (the "kid from Canada") a chance, and having faith in me. May he rest in peace.

Working with John was always an excellent learning experience. His family has my deepest sympathy.

John was the very definition of a gentleman in an industry in which gentlemen are all to rare. May his family and many friends find comfort and consolation at this time.

NBC was never the same after John left. Working with him was a joy and he made the world a better place. My heart goes out to his family.
