Not sure what to say?

One of the nicest families I have ever known. John was like a second Dad to our son Nick, and always treated everyone like one of his own. John
was well respected and full of integrity....until me meet again, John !

I played the Albany father/son-daughter last summer with Terry Zweiner & our sons. John was a very nice guy & mutual Westie owner. Our condolences to your family.

Mike and I grew up with John, and his Brother Kurt, from St. Anthony Grade School. Later our children played hockey together and hung out on different occasions. Our Sympathy and hugs to all of you.
- Mike and Sue Koshiol family

I so enjoyed working with John at American Family. His sense of humor was so fun and he was always kind and helpful. I am so sorry to hear about his passing - he was a wonderful man and the world has lost a great guy.

We are so sorry to hear of John’s passing. Our children grew up together, and we particularly have fond memories of hockey and Mexico trips. John was a truly nice guy. Our hearts go out to the family.

John was one of the "good" guys that you meet in life.
Have some fun memories of John playing softball, skiing in Montana (he would call me Tumba, not Tomba), and the annual fishing opener at the Zwiener lake lot. My sympathies to the entire family.
Until we meet again Elmer.....

Our sincere sympathy to your family in the passing of John. I knew John from St. Anthony's and hanging out with his brother Curt. John always had a smile on his face. He loved life and was a good man.

I knew John through football and school at Tech, maybe even back at Good Old South JR High. John was a character. In high school, I was to small to continue to play football after my Sophomore year... I was all of 95 pounds.... but John continued to play. I remember one summer he trained to challenge Jim Harstad to a foot race around the track at South Jr. High before football practice started in August.... If I remember right John trained throughout the summer. Although John did not win as...

Our families were neighbors growing up on 25th. Ave. John was a great guy & was truly blessed by his family. My deepest sympathies to you Michele, Brittney, Robbie, Sam, Kurt, Terisa & all on John's passing. May God wrap His loving arms around you & bring peace to your grieving hearts. You will be in the thoughts & prayers of many. Sincerely, Brenda Litzinger.
