I had the pleasure of meeting John through Beverly softball. We both coached our daughters teams. He was always a competitive guy, who seemed very patient with his kids, and always had a smile on his face before and after games, win or lose. Rest in Peace.

Hannah, Molly and the Pitman family,
You are in our thoughts and prayers. Your tributes to your dad were eloquent evidence of a life well-lived. I often wondered what gives one the strength to speak as you did under those circumstances. I now know that love gives you that strength. Hold onto the love of your dad and everyone around you! God bless your family.
