Although I had not spoken with John for many years, I thought of him daily as I drove by the Sloat home on Indian Field Road.I have fond memories of our time together at Cos Cob, Central and Greenwich High School. John will always hold a special place in my heart. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time in your lives.

So sorry to hear about John's passing. While we had not been in contact for a long time I will always have wonderful memories of you. Every day at least one song plays on the radio that reminds me of our days in Greenwich.
There was a time that John did not exist and that time has come again, I think we should be glad that we lived in the time that he did.

I was so sad to hear about John. I can't believe the years flew by so fast; I have such happy memories of times years ago when our families were close~fun summer evenings of barbecues,watching the "Bugs" play ball and seeing everyone at dad's station. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this difficult time.

So long John. It's a shame we didn't get to meet each other in person. Every time a visit got planned, something happened that we couldn't get together. May you rest in peace. God bless.

I saw John's name it made me so sad. I haven't been in touch with John in many years, but he came to my mind often..When I think of John I just remember being in Central Middle School together..John had the most unbelievable way of making you laugh with his wit and humor. I met his brother's wife years later..when we worked together and was happy to meet someone that knew John and was still in touch with him. I pray that he is at peace and has found rest. My prayers for his entire family during this time...

John, you were a great hearted person to the people who cared about you and was around you, I thank you for that. You will be sadly missed by the kids. Bree and I will miss your laughter and jokes that you had for us. We both don't know what to do without you now. I can say that you will be very much sadly missed by us and will always have a place in our hearts. Snoopy is in good hands and will have the same name that you had for him. Bree, the kids and I will never forget you.

John, you were my soul and heart. Since the beginning of our relationship, many people could not understand our love and care for each other. Even though we are no longer together, you will always remain my soul and the love of my life. I love you the mostest ... CASE CLOSED!!!

Since the day we first met John, he became family. I will always remember his exuberant laugh and how much laughter her brought to our lives. John was a fine actor and I had the honor of joining him on stage from Jr. High through College. John you were one of a kind and will be dearly missed. Our hearts go out to his brothers and Jon.

Two things first come to mind about John, both reflecting his love of music - bringing a stack of 45s for the art teacher to play during class at Central JHS, and performing at the ShowMobile in Loughlin Avenue park.
I did not have a better friend all through school.
My condolences to his fine brothers.
