In 1986 or 1987 I was working in a Chevrolet dealership in Flushing Queens. One day, a man walked in and wound up buying a Cavalier from the dealership. Then he came to me to do additional paperwork. It was John. We started talking and he told me he was an actor. I was very interested in that and we had a whole conversation about it. That´s when I started following his career.The following year I was in Los Angeles, and I ran into him on the street. It was purely by chance. So we stopped and talked some more. He was a very easy and down to earth man. After five minutes of talking with him I felt like I had known him for years. I´m sorry to hear of his passing

Mr Capodice was a fantastic actor.
I literally watched him as I grew up. I particularly enjoyed him in Seinfeld and Boy Meets World, and of course Ace Ventura and Wizards of Waverly Place. Fantastic Man, Fantastic Actor. He will be missed.
