John J. Gargalianos

I am at the age now where I harken back to my career with IBM and I always think of John and he was such a positive influence in the Salem office on Lafayette Street. I always looked forward to his arrival in the office. Rest In Peace John.

I just became aware of the loss of this tremendous gentleman and was greatly saddened to learn of his passing! John serviced my IBM typewriters for over 30 Years and all of my IBM Selectric Machines have his name tagged onto each one of them. I can only say how much I enjoyed John (and Diana) from my regular visits into the Beverly Store on Elliott Street and when John would come to my office to service the equipment. He has been at perfect peace and rest for some time now but I could not...

My deepest sympathy to John's family. I knew John was my typewriter repair man. Even after he closed his shop, he still repaired my typewriter. He was always friendly and pleasant. Truly an amazing person.

So sorry to read news of John´s passing. Always remember what a happy guy he was...and the amazing talent he had on the golf course... My sympathies to the family. Rest in peace, John...

To Mrs. G., and especially old friends, Pete and Steve. I'm terribly sad to hear about your father's passing. He was a tremendously upstanding man who I deeply respect. Both he and Mrs. G. were always so kind and generous to the neighbors, and all of the various clubs and organizations they committed so much time to. He was always good to us and did not shy away from giving us some much needed discipline Known as Lord of the Grass, he had the best lawn in the neighborhood as well! My father...

What a wonderful man your dad was Pete! Always had a smile on his face and loved his family so much. My condolences to you and your family.

Diana and Family, So sorry to hear of John's passing. He was a very special person. RIP John

So sorry for your loss. Thoughts and Prayers to the family

I was very fortunate to have worked with John at IBM in Salem, Massachusetts. He had a very special and warm personality and I looked forward to him visiting the office. I haven't seen John for 61 years but I will always remember my friendship with him. Rest in Peace John Gargalianos.
