Not sure what to say?

I worked with John at LHS. I remember him fondly. My condolences to his family and friends.

To Joan & Family, John was a dear friend of whose friendship I deeply appreciate. I enjoyed our time together, when he would bring his Ludlow High School Girls Team each year to give them a clinic. Eventually he had help him teach his Ludlow Summer Tennis program at the Ludlow High School Tennis Courts. Finally I assisted him coaching the girls high school team until he retired from coaching, which included the year the team went undefeated (20-0) during the regular season. That...

Dear Carlin Family, my sincere condolences to you during this time of mourning. John and I shared much time on the ice officiating so many hockey games together. I could always count on him to watch my back when the games got a little heated. We would talk a lot about our families on our long car rides to and from games, and one thing for sure, is how much he cared about them. May the Good Lord fill you with great faith, hope and love. Amen God Bless, Deacon Jim

To Joan, Tim and family, I did not know John personally but knew of him through accounts of their great visits and fun times from Tim. Gone too soon, clearly he lived a blessed life. Athletics and in particular Hockey appears to be an institution among the Carlin family as John's brother Jim was my High School Hockey Coach at Classical. My sincerest condolences, thoughts and prayers are with you all right now. Larry Griffin Jr.
