Not sure what to say?

John and I became roommates the semester after pledging Sigma Gamma Fraternity together Spring "76". We had many great adventures both while at SUNY Oswego and after graduation! Including a trip to England and a trip to Cancun Mexico! I will miss John "Shoe" a great deal! I pray that he is at peace with the Lord.

Laurie and I have known John since we moved to Cazenovia more than 15 years ago. Until we purchased a home we lived across the hall from him. He was an excellent next door neighbor. He was friendly and never seemed to be negative. We continued to see him having a beer at night or a cup of coffee in the AM with his dog(s) at his side. He is and will be missed.
