He was a man of principle who lived his life with integrity and grace, earning the respect and admiration of all who knew him.

Dear Coniglio Family, my deepest condolences in the passing of John, a true gentleman who cared deeply for many including my Collura family. We shared mutual family and many conversations on those we cared very much about. May God's blessings be with each of you as John earned his wings the day before his 94th birthday. On his birthday, as I have before, I posted to his FB acct in celebration and in a text directly. Wish i knew how to spell his name as we always pronounced in Italian.
