Not sure what to say?

I'm saddened to hear of John's passing. I would have attended his service if I had known. I worked with Big John for many years at OMRDD. I used to kid around with him. I also knew his wife Philomena, they were a great couple.

My sincerest sympathies to John's family. He and I and my recently departed twin brother shared the same birthday, attended Vincentian Institute and Siena. John and I had the honor of playing basketball at Siena for four years. He was one of the hardest players who always gave his all. Most importantly, he was one of the most humble and kindest persons I have ever known. I'm miss him dearly and will always remember our unique relationship. RIP,good friend..

I was so sorry to hear about Big John's passing. He & Philly raised a beautiful family. May he rest in peace now that they are together again. I will keep all of you in my prayers.
