Not sure what to say?

I want to express my sympathy to Dennis and Karen. Although I never met you, your dad was a dear friend and always spoke so lovingly of both of you. He was the kindest and most genuine man I've ever met and I loved hearing his stories. I am so very sad to hear of his passing. Rest in peace John, my friend.

To Nan, Arthur, Dennis, Karen Dale & family. Bobbie & I are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts & prayers are with you all. As an old neighbor, friend & fellow knight John will never be forgotten. Sincerely,

A truly remarkable man. His wit and kindness to all will be remembered forever. We love you and miss you Uncle Connie.

Good bye uncle Connie I will miss are talks on the phone you always gave good advice,I wish my wife had gotten to meet you but she does know you I have told her about you,she loved talking with you and would get off the phone and say what a very nice man and such A gentleman,We will remember you for your kindness and for giving A little boy a wonderful day in 1962 in the summertime a memory I have to this day of me finding what I thought was A civil war relic you knew it was not but help me...

Connie was a beloved neighbor for many years. Always ready with a great story to share and a smile to warm your heart. God Bless!

I knew John many years ago from Bell Tel and reconnected with him when I joined the West Shore Elks. What a joy he was. We had a lot of good talks. Always cheerful and grateful for the life he had. He was so admired by many of his Elks Brothers and Sisters. He will be missed.

To the Cronin Family,

I have known Connie for 19 years as a member of the Knights of Columbus. John has been with the Knights for 62 years.
When I joined the Knights, John was the banner bearer and until he moved to Dillsburg. John will be in our prayers and, as a Knight will be included in the intentions of a Mass celebrated in St. Mary's Church in New Haven, where the Knights were founded, every day.

God rest his soul. He is greatly missed.

Dear Dennis, Karen and Family, Sincere and heartfelt sympathy to all of you. I have so many good memories of your wonderful Dad. In particular, I remember so vividly, our Dads playing golf early Saturday morning! As a teenager, it always amazed me that my Dad and his friends would already be home from their golf outing about the same time I was starting my day. They must have carpooled because I can still see them and hear their voices as they unloaded their clubs, etc in front of the house....

To John's family we give our deepest sympathy. He was a wonderful man and we enjoyed his company and time of sharing after mass on Sundays when we would meet in the all purpose room for coffee and donuts. He will be greatly missed. He enjoyed my hugs before he left for home and would say (Ah this is the best part, you made my day)Jean From Jean and Jim Riss
