We are so very sorry for your loss. He was a great man and loved everywhere. My Dad would tell me stories of them playing all over and what a great time they had. The concerts and then the trips and how much fun he had with John and the group. I know they are in heaven now with the accordions and having a grand old time. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family at this difficult time. May the memories fill your hearts .

Dottie: Very sorry for your loss. John was a great guy. Sorry I could not make the funeral or viewing. I remember coming to your house when i worked for Hancock Ins. and also when I worked at the Luzerne County Credit Union. He was a great man in his music and his helping others. I will have a mass card for him. Dan Stempleski.

My Deepest Sympathy to the family of John (Stanky). My family Church in Nanticoke was St. Mary's. I remember Stanky and his band playing at the churches picnic in the parking lot of the Church. Stanky also would have a Polka Mass in the Church during the picnic. He and his family didn't live far from me. LCCC was between his house and my families house where I lived.
