It has been almost a year since we lost John...Certainly a very premature loss. He is missed by all, especially Nancy, his loving wife. A one an only true love cannot be denied and can never be forgotten.

I was John's admin for several years at Motorola and he was the nicest, most sincere person I've ever worked for. Quite a gentleman. My sincere condolences to his family. I'm sure he will be missed.

Everytime I saw John at family functions he reminded me of a movie star! The Good looks with the 5 o'clock shadow even though he probably just shaved an hour before. Always smiling and sweet to everyone. I don't think I'll know too many more people in my time with the class and poise of this man. Huge loss for earth. Huge gain for heaven.

Dear Family, I was deeply saddened to hear about John. My hope and prayer is that he was completely at peace.

I have many fond memories of the Sarallo family when I was young. John was my godfather and I always looked forward to seeing him and Nancy at the many family gatherings. I still cherish a bracelet they gave me as a child. Every time I looked at it, I thought of them thoughtout the years and hoped they were living a good life. I just wish that I had many more opportunities to see them and to get to know their families.

Nancy, my sincerest condolences. I hope to see you soon, Love, Gina
