John hired me as a vendor on May 4, 1974. I stuck it out for 42 years until my body could no longer cooperate. It was at Shea that I met most of the people I have and still call friends, including my best friend. He and his wife introduced me to the woman to whom I've been married for 32 years. John was a good boss, but, more importantly, a good man.

John became a great and valued friend when we moved into Gedny Commons. Our talks on politics, sports and the world will forever be with us. A truly great man.

John was the best manager ever! He would always care for his managers and employees. We kept in touch for over 30 years. He touched thousands of us with warm and caring heart and sense of humor. RIP

My deepest condolences to the entire family of John Morley.
Mr. Morley was my first boss way back in 1969, when the Mets won their first World Series! When I think of him, I smile...
He truly believed in family!!
He hired most of mine!
My Mother, Frances, my 3 sisters, Carol, Fran, Lauraine and my brother, Larry, all worked for him at Shea Stadium!
Bless the Morleys... The Crilley family was so lucky to know your Dad, Grandfather & Great Grandfather!

The Manhattan College & Prep alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings & Prep community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any mans death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
