My deepest condolences to you and your family! John was a patient in the dental office I worked at. John was always so pleasant and would light up a room whenever he would go! RIP John. Wanda

You are now relieved from your watch. A job well done fellow navy veteran. America owes you a great deal of gratitude for protecting our freedom. A Navy Vietnam Veteran.

I work for one of the Allentown State Representatives and for many years John would come to our office for assistance. He was always so very kind and appreciative of our help, no matter how small the ask. The world needs more kind and polite people like John.

Sir, thank you for your service.
