John Naum

Condolences to the Naum family, remembering a life well lived. My best friend Ben, and my niece Lisa had their first employment @ Sweetland's under John tutelage.

On my way home from school one winter day, 45 years ago, with a book bag in one hand and a trombone in the other, I crowded through the Sweetland front entryway to see about the help wanted sign in the window. I soon found myself in the middle of my first employment interview, with John finding this 15-year-old kid capable enough to be trusted with a dishwashing job. That first paycheck-about $42-seemed like all the wealth in the world. John was indeed a good mentor. So good, that decades...

I am so sorry to hear about John. I was his next door neighbor for many years and he and I spent many an afternoon talking about the state of the World. I have never known a better man. Jodi please accept my condolences.

So sorry to hear about the passing of John, my first job was at Sweetland as a waitress and enjoyed watching John make his favorite candies on that marble table in the back, colorful mints, seafoam and oh the chocolate rabbits at Easter...great memories.

Very sorry to hear about John Sr passing. My Father Joe and I enjoyed working with the family and always looked forward to his cheery positive attitude and the tasty truffles.

To The Naum Family...So sorry to learn of John's passing. It is a comfort that he knew the Lord, and you will all be reunited with him in Heaven.

My deepest sympathy to Jodie and her entire Family. I have known John from high school and Jodie from Kindergarten. John was a dear man to everyone and always had a smile on his face. He will be missed by many.

Our love to the family, and our deepest condolences on the passing of a great man.
