Not sure what to say?

I thoroughly enjoyed the times we harmonized when I lived in Pennecamp. God bless you John and may you rest in peace.

My husband, Mick Driver, played with South Jersey Rugby and was very fond of John. Lots of memories. Thinking of you all during this difficult time. Denise and Mick Driver

John was a great man who I played Rugby with after coming from California after college. His leadership and play led the SOUTH Jersey Rugby Club to be a force to be reckoned with in this game. He was and always will be a man who contributed to my life. As he did to Barbara's and his children. See you on the other side Big Guy.

I first met John in the fall of 1969 when he and Casey McKee started the South jersey Rugby Club. I could tell from the start he was a true leader and organizer. He helped me get a job at Hahnemann Hospital in 1971 for which I am eternally grateful. He also helped me trace some of my roots. A good man indeed who will be missed by many. Thanks, JT.
