I will always remember John as a quiet,unassuming person. He had a beautiful heart and never had a bad word to say to anyone. It's been a long time since 1968, but I will always remember him that way.

My long time friend, I tried for weeks to call you or find you. Unfortunately the outcome was not what I hoped it would be. Although we didn't see each other frequently, we always kept in touch. Every Birthday, every Christmas that went by we never forgot each other. All the fun times we had at U-Mass Amherst (putting the convertible roof down on your Camaro in -20F weather). The fun we had at Zares paging each other on the store phones. You always were a good friend and the most kind person I've ever met in my lifetime. You'll always be in my heart. I'll never forget you! Friend for life. Love Carol

Dear John, I just called today to wish you a happy birthday and found I lost a dear friend. My world has many loving memories of you in my life and all the hearts you touched. You can rest well now John, and many will know they have a very strong soul watching over them from above. I will miss you dearly and your laughter and twinkle in your eyes will remain forever in my heart.

Dearest John, You were the best friend anyone could ever have to go through childhood and life with. You were always like a brother to me and I always felt like a member of your family. Outside of my siblings I knew you longer than anyone (including some of them because they weren't born yet). We had a special bond that could never be broken. In many ways we got each other through childhood and had so many countless good times together. I can't believe I won't be able to pick up the phone and hear your voice and laugh. Oh how we laughed!! There were so many good times and memories to hold onto: 50s & 60s music, WMEX, Good Guys, Zayre's, Papa Gino's, Dunkin Donuts, movies, Diana Ross, Nantasket, Paragon Park, the Sugar Shack, concerts, Gauld Show, fun times with Donna and your family, Food, Tart, the Weymouth gang and so much more. Your were my Best Man 25 years ago & you still are. What a beautiful friend you have always been. You always had a smile, joke, and how your heart overflowed with love for your family and friends. We are all so Blessed just knowing you and having you in our lives. Our lives are so much richer because of you. Life on this planet will never be the same without you. My gratitude for your life, love, & friendship could never be expressed in mortal words. We have a spiritual bond and I look forward to our eternal friendship. I know the heavens & angels must have been singing with great joy like the joy you brought us. There was a great celebration in heaven at your arrival home as heaven's gates opened wide for your arrival. John, you gave so much and loved so much there is such an emptiness with you gone. You will live on in our hearts and memories forever. Thank you for your love, support, & friendhip. Rest in wonderful peace my beloved friend. To John's family: Rose (your beloved Mom), Donna, George, Cindy & her family, & your extended family -we send our love, sympathy, and gratitude for sharing John. Be at peace knowing he is at peace. Love & Peace, Bill & Jacqui Minkle, South Grafton MA

John had hundreds of friends that he considered "family", and a heart big enough for all of us. John was family, our Cousin, but more like a younger brother to us, and he will be sorely missed. We comfort ourselves in the belief that he has gone to a better place.

John, there's a hole in my heart when I think about you being gone. You are one of the best people I know, and I truly mean that. I think everyone who knew you, had the same feelings for you- Love. I will forever remember you, especially when I use my GE products or shop at Target. I am grateful you were a part of my life.

To John's family,my my sincere condolances in the loss of your son,brother, & friend. I had not seen him since graduation, but Helen MacDonald kept me up to date on him. He was an amazing young man and friend in high school and I am sure he was the same as an adult. Ellen Lavoie(Kinsman) class of 68!

I remember you John as one of the kindest and gentlest souls I have ever met. You always made whoever you were with feel like the only person in the room with your mindful attention. I am sorry you are gone from here...but not from my fond memories. And those who have already crossed are glad for your presence. Safe travels brave One.
