John James DiGangi

I knew John very well. We went to Tottenville HS together. “DiGang”, as we called him was a great guy with a big heart. We hung out every day, never seemed to make it into class even though it was freezing out. I was only wearing my leather jacket at the time when Johnny boy said, “wear my jacket for today if you’re cold” We switched coats for that day.. It was back in 1977 or 1978, Im not sure. The point is, he was a good friend. He contacted me about 2 years ago through a facebook connection that my sister has. I was happy to hear from him. And now Im going to miss him. Tried searching for him today only to find out he’s gone. Im gonna miss him. Didn’t know at the time that was going to be our goodbye conversation Im gonna miss you my friend.. I’ll see you on the other side..

Love and miss you Dad. Your always in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong for me.

Love and miss you my father!
See you on the other side my friend.

Love and miss you my father!
