Our families grew up a block apart. He was a very special Dad indeed. I will always remember him outside playing sports with all the kids. He will be missed. Condolences from our family.

John was my math teacher at Bishop Kelly. He is remembered because he always treated me with respect. The world has lost a good man. Rest in Peace John.
