I worked with John at XEROX from 1971 to 1976. John was such a GREAT friend & coworker. I was ALWAYS Happy to see and work with John. Several years later in the 1990's I was invited to a Xerox Reunion Picnic & when John saw me I thought he was going to cry! John was a GREAT Friend! Bob Rapciak.

My name is Bob Rapciak. I worked with John at Xerox in Oak Brook from 1971 to 1976. John was always laughing with me whenever we'd see each other. AND, Whenever he saw me at the "coffee/catering truck John would say "HEY SAUSAGE & EGGS" again? then several years later it was in the 1990's I was invited to a Xerox Reunion Picnic and as soon as he spotted me & he yelled out "SAUSAGE!!!! He was one of my favorite coworkers I ever met! GOD BLESS YOU JOHN. Bob "Sausage" Rapciak.

Mr Modzejewski is the father of one my high school best friends ,Julie.
My deepest sympathy. My favorite memory was him driving Julie and myself
Around in an old sedan, all 4 windows down. He was funny as all get out. Wonderful gentleman.
Julie reach out to me. Prayers to you and your sissy Joann.
