John Thomas Gregaru

One of the more real people I've ever known. A naturally upbeat positive soul. Many fond, even exciting memories. See you on the other side, JT~

I just learned of John's passing this weekend. My heart is sadden by this news. My sister Karin, John and I shared a house in Santa Venitia in the mid 80's for a short time. John was always happy and had a smile to share. And every morning I would hear him throw the dog food spoon into the sink when he got ready to leave for work, lol. Funny that Chester is mentioned in this guestbook, he did love that dog. I will always have good memories about John. My deepest sympathies goes to his...

As the rest of you, I could go on forever about Johnny as well. He was a staple here in "the hood". If I could share what I said at his services I would but I don't think there is enough room. Johnny was the glue that held our neighborhood together. He made us a family. He looked after all of us exactly the way we needed. We wish he would have let us be there for him the way he was for us. We lost Johnny too soon and the hood will never be the same.

I lived up the street from the Gregarus while growing up, and was in John's class from Silveira Elementary through TLHS. My parents, sister, and I extend our sincere sympathy to Mr. and Mrs. Gregaru, and Frank and his family for your loss. John will be missed.

Your passing makes me sad. We have been "family" for many years. Your Mom & Dad and mine have shared so much and as kids you were always my "cousin". The memories of you are forever, I speak of them often and always will. "Ride" forever and you will always ride by my side as my Harley Angel. Your friend forever, Jerry R.

John helped us when we added the 2nd story on to our house. We would laugh so hard that we would never get the sheet rock hung and my husband had to seperate us to get any work done. That was in 1975 and the last time I saw John we still laughed over the sheet rock. Heaven only knows what we laughed about but it was funny then and again in 2008. I have so many stories that I could add to this but space is limited. After being a neighbor for over 30 years and a friend for much longer I...

I am heartbroken by the news of John's passing. He was a kind and compassionate person and reintroduced us to the love of dogs. We had two of Maggie and Chester's pups, Louie and Lucy. They are both long gone now, but got me through my own difficult time of loss. I will always remember John.
