Not sure what to say?

This is long overdue. John was one of a few men besides my own dad that taught me so much as I became a homeowner and willingly gave off his time and expertise throughout his life I grew up with Johns sons Mark and David and still maintain a regular relationship with Mark and when I watch him work in my home I see John so much . So genuine ,meticulous and just a wonderful person . I think sometimes I plan electrical work just so I can go down memory lane with Mark. I´m sorry I wasn´t aware...

I am so sorry for your loss and I don´t know if I have the right David Vitka but I am Joan Rahrig Watkins and I had a student by your name in second grade before I was married. I remember both students David Vitka and best friend Andy Brennan. You were both two of my favorite students if you are the right, David. If not, please ignore this, but I am very sorry for the loss of your father. He must have been a remarkable man and I just finished reading, in today´s paper, a tribute by Terry...

Dear Marie and family, I was so sorry to hear of John´s passing. May God comfort your hearts at this very sad time. Lorraine Benedetto

I met John while serving on the PFAC (Patient & Family Advisory Council) at Saint Vincent´s Medical Center. For the many years we served together, we seemed to always sit together. I always admired his wit, charm and dedication to all the patients there at Saint V´s. He will be sorely missed by me and all those at Saint V´s.

To the Vitka family, Merry and my thoughts and prayers are with you doing this time.

Stephanie, so sorry for your loss, God Bless you and your family.

He didn't just inspect a house and write a report, he also educated homebuyers about how to maintain a house. He told me that one day, he wanted to write a book about 52 things to...

Dear Mark and Family, We are so sorry to hear of your Dad´s passing. May he Rest In Peace and may you and your family forever remember all the beautiful memories with him over the years. Love, Marianne and Chuck Davenport
