John was a good friend who i had the pleasure of knowing...We went to culinary school together and also worked at Vincenzo's together... I guess you can say we cut our teeth together....As he would say ...We went our separate ways ....But always stayed in contact....I remember some summer days years ago fishing at his fathers place....Talking trash having a good time...He will be missed.....#Smooth

John was a nice, caring, and fun-loving individual. We spoke once or twice a week for the last year or two, and it was a time that I looked forward to! We shared political views, car stories, but most of all, his children. HE ABSOLUTELY GLEEMED when speaking of them. He will be dearly missed.
