I recall John from my high school years. I used to play in the band with Steve and we rode dirt bikes in the swamp. I went with him on his milk route just to see what the town was like before sunrise. My father was a fireman with him until his retirement in 1985. A good man who raised a good family. I am sure he will be missed by all who knew him.

I will never forget getting lost in NYC with John in a flat bed tow truck while helping his son, and my good friend Glenn. Nicknamed "Grumpy" but honestly one of the kindest souls one could ever meet. He was loved and will be missed by many. Ed Uranyi

I certainly will miss the good times I had visiting with John. The trips to the steam shows were great and we even got him to stop for a hot dog once.
