John was my Godfather and more like family then a family friend. Every year as a child and well into my adult years we traveled to NJ to visit our family. We sat around my grandmom's table with what seemed like 100 chairs, and enough food to feed the neighborhood.
The entire Gigante clan came to visit us there, catch up on life, and laugh! I remember John and Kathy, always being a part of that. He took the role of my Godfather very seriously, and always made sure I knew I was special and loved! He was a great man! He introcuded my parents, so in a way I owe him my life!! He will be missed by so many!

Kathy, Kelly, and Kim I am so truly sorry for your loss. You are all in my thoughts, and I wish I could be there to say one last goodbye to my Irish Godfather!

To Kathy, Kelly and Kim your husband and father Mr. McGuinness will always hold a place in my family's heart. John will be deeply missed by all of us neighbors he will be remembered by all the kids in the neighborhood every morning he would stand at the corner of walnut ave. and Glenwood ave and wave to everyone going and coming to Gateway high school and Woodbury Heights elementary school.
