John honorably served his country in the U. S. Navy during World War II and was trained and served as a part of a group that would eventually be the forerunner of what is now the Navy Seals. He was an Honorary Member of the Knights of Columbus and a member of the Sacred Heart Society.
The family will receive friends from 9:00am until 10:00am on Saturday, January 23, 2016, with the Mass of Resurrection following at 10:00am at The Warren Chapel in St. Dominic Village, 2401 Holcombe Blvd., Houston, Texas 77021 with Father Roy Oggero officiating.

Uncle Johnny, You and Aunt Lucille were two of the most genuine, sincere people that I was blessed to have come into my life. The two of you had my utmost respect.
Now, that you have gone to join your heavenly family, I can say that we here, are far better for having been touched by your kind heart.

With love and respect
