With deepest sympathy to the Fabian Family.John was one of the finest Firefighters and Lieutenants, that I had the priviledge of working for, and with. John was truly a gentleman and humanitarian in the finest sense. I will always cherish our late night talks and his advice. I am proud to call John Fabian, my friend.



Sadly missed,

I will always remember Jack as a very hard working and conscientious gentleman. His friendship during the 1970s and 1980s was cherished. My dad and I send our deepest sympathy and well wishes to his remaining family and friends.
