Roseanne, Charles & Rosalie, Please accept our deepest sympathies on your loss.

I just heard aboutJohn´s passing, he was a great man. So sorry for your loss.

Thank you all for your kind remembrances. You all meant a lot to my Dad.

Sorry to hear about John passing, I had the privilege to work with him at Greefield Dodge, he was a great guy, so caring about his family and mentoring, he was a wonderful person.

Dear Family of John, My name is Mary Ellen Lederer and I taught at Chapin for twenty years. I loved how John subbed and worked with my students with his "productivity sheets." In fact I requested John to be my sub when my mother passed away in 2913 because I knew my students would be taken care if. He often spoke of how he absolutely adored his wife,children and granddaughter. He was an exceptionally kind man who I consider blessed to have known. My deepest sympathies to his family. Mary...

John and Rosemary are my Godparents, they both were wonderful people . I have great memories of watching my First college basketball with john at their Family Home in Lawrence .I became a fan that day . John was very generous with his time with my children helping them to prepare for SATs. He will be missed John Contento

I am deeply saddened to hear of John's passing. I had the pleasure of working alongside him, teaching mathematics, at Chapin School. His dedication to his students' well-being, his passion for math, and his contributions to our community will never be forgotten. He was truly one of the good ones. My heartfelt condolences and blessings to the family.

Roseanne/ Rosalie: My deepest condolences for your loss. I have so many fond memories of John throughout my life. He was a great influence to me in my education and career choice and I will always think of him fondly. Your families are in our thoughts and prayers. John Scarlata
