Not sure what to say?

My heart goes out to Judy,Richard and the rest of the Iwanicki family.Richard and my son grew up together so I had several times to have conversation with John. I did not know him personally but yes on first meeting John,you knew he was a character. Judy, God Bless you and your family and John Rest in Peace.

Very sorry to hear about John's passing. Our condolences go out to his family. My many years of working with him were not without a lot of humor. I rather suspect that the Tic-Tac industry will also morn his passing. John always seemed to have an ample supply of them available. Will miss you guy.

I enjoyed working, fishing, drinking and joking with my buddy John. Rest easy, my friend.

Sorry to hear of John's death, I recall the years we worked together at Grumman and what an interesting character John was.I specifically remember him talking about find a car while he was mowing hie grass. There will never be another John Iwanicki. My condolences to his family.

All the best to the Iwanicki family.

My condolences to you, Judy, and to your family. John was a big character and he taught me a lot when I started out and what to take, or not take, seriously.

I send my deepest condolences to the Iwanicki Family in this time...Having known John my entire life, he was indeed quite the character and very colorful! He was unique in many ways and very talented in what he did throughout his careers in the Marine Corps and engineer at Grumman. RIP, John. You will be missed!
