Goodmorning, My sister Jody, notified me of John's passing. I am deeply sorry to hear of this. We went through grammer, and some high school together. We were good friends as kids, which seems like yesterday.We were alterboys, and went through many passages together. I have good memories of John.As we moved to Cal. back in the 60S, I saw John only one more time when I came to visit on leave, from the service. John was every bit, The fighting Irish, but his heart was always kind. John, hope to see you again in the here after. Your friend Jamie

I was SO sorry to hear about John...and shocked to say the least. We were very good friends MANY (over 25) years ago. I send my deepest condolences to all his family members.
