I have known John for 50 years. He was a good citizen of our Williamstown community. He will be missed.

John was one of the sweetest people I ever met. I remember when I was young he helped me cross the street to the public library. I am sure there are many similiar stories since every one in Williamstown had contact with him often. He always had a smile. He will be missed.

Dear Barbara and Family,

Our sincere sympathy to you and your family. John was a familiar sight to everyone and always was happy helping someone. May good memories comfort you as you adjust to life without him.

I knew Johnny Los when he worked in the Perry House kitchen (then it was the Alpha Delta Phi fraternity). I too worked in the kitchen, as part of my financial aid provided by the college. Johnny was always a good, spirited, diligent, team worker.
