John Gurrieri Obituary

John Roy Gurrieri, September 27, 1953 - May 29, 2002. Happy
First Birthday In Heaven John, it's been a year since you left us, It seems like only yesterday at times. Sure wish we could pick up the phone and talk or have dinner together. Your absence has left such a void in all our lives, we will never forget the happiness, love and caring you brought into our lives. You will always be alive in our hearts, and remembered every day. You were always a big part of all of our lives, and will always be. I still can't accept that anything could take down such a big man. But it's not suprising that God would call on you at only 48. He only takes the best. I guess you were, and always will be remembered as a "Rock Solid" kind of guy. Until we meet again in heaven. Love always and forever. All your Family.

Being Lisa's Best Friend i knew John for 8 years. Those years full of memories. We were known as the McKids, Dumb and Dumber, What a duo, and much much more. I am writing in this book a year and a half after his passing and 1 month after his beloved daughter Lisa's passing. What comfort to know that she was guided into the gates of heaven by her father John. She missed him greatly and had a hard time with his passing. John was a great father and made the best "Shave Soup". He was so worried about us always catching a cold and wearing our socks outside. We never knew why. I love John and i can't wait to see him in heaven with his Beautiful Daughter. What a great second dad for me. I love you Paula.

My darling nephew, Godchild, you have always been a man to be admired. In our home we speak of you often, always with love and affection. Although you are no longer with us, we think of you, talk about you and find you in our prayers. You will never be forgotten. You're missed so much by so many. There was always something magical about you. We loved your smile,sence of humor, easy laughter, outstanding courage and the genuine love you brought to us so often. The incredible fact is, your grandfather, John Gurrieri also displayed these remarkable traits. The magic is, you too, will live in our hearts forever.



Eternal Love,

You are the love of my life and I miss you so very much. We had 25 wonderful years together. You were always a big part in my life. I wish that I could have done more for you. I feel at times that I was such a failure. The love I have for you will never die and even today as the time goes by my love grows stronger and stronger. I miss you Baby Boy and I love you so much. I'm sorry that I didn't do more to help you. If only I could have made you go to the Doctor sooner.
