Not sure what to say?

On the occasion of our 50TH high school reunion it was brought home how awfully sad it was not to have his smiling face among us and how I wish he had not been taken from us so soon. John was a very special person whose caring nature and sincerity was obvious to all, even during our high school years when such qualities are often neither common nor appreciated . I will never forget the encouraging words he had for me at our 20th reunion when I was going through some difficult times. We had...

John always had a smile and an attitude that was always positive.

Kathy and family I am so sorry for your loss. John was a great person and although I only caught up with you at reunions, I was always so glad to see you and John -- all these years you were together. A big hug to you and my prayers always. Marian McComiskey Hartle

John was a wonderful man who, with his wife Kathy, we always had a great time, including our time together in Athens for the Olympics. Our very best to Kathy and his family.

Dear Kathy! I am so sorry for your loss of John! I have many great memories of John in high school. He was funny, kind and always in love with you!! Although, I loss track of you and John - other than running into you at Splish Splash - I know what a great man he was. Again, my deepest sympathies, Mary Gibbons

John was a true professional and mentor. He pushed me to be the best I could. He did everything first class and today's professionals could have learned lots from John. I will greatly miss him and my wife and I pray for the Young family.

John was a great boss and mentor to me. But above all he was a wonderful person. He was a very kind man with the utmost integrity, who loved and cherished his family. My deepest sympathies to the Young faimly.

My condolences to the Young Family. John was my first boss in ad sales and taught me many things about the business that I still rely on today. He was smart, firm but fair and a good man.
