John Mantzaris

Sorry for your loss Adam & family.

Jean I am sorry for your loss.

I have known John for over 50 years, starting when we served together on the Meriden Board of Education. I soon realized that I had befriended a true Renaissance Man, an eclectic man with a great sense of humor and amicable personality. But beyond all that, John was truly at his core, a remarkably good and special person. It was a privilege to know John and be his friend.

My sincere condolences to Jean, John, Mary and extended family members. I was so fortunate to have John as a professor at CCSU. He was one of the finest professors I had during the college years. He had the respect and admiration from all students. While I was working in the Meriden school system, John was President of the Board of Education, a job he did with grace and dignity. May he find eternal peace, simply stated, a wonderful human being.

Jean and Family- My mom, Mary, and I loved when John and Jean came to eat at our restaurant (Verdolini's) because they were so sweet and so in love and always had such warm words for everyone. My heart goes out to you but hoping your memories bring you much joy.

Whilst we all aspire to live good and long lives, from the beginning it was clear to me that John was on a path to a long "Life Well Lived". Our condolences to Jean and Family

My deepest condolences, he was a very nice person and a wonderful member of the Board of Education.

Jean and family. So sorry to hear about John. My prayers are with you. Samuel Liseo

Adam & Family Sorry for your loss.
