John Pontoriero Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Our Precious Dad, also known as Papa, Brother and Uncle, passed away March 10th, 2025.
Dad was born in Pennsylvania 09/16/1937 and moved to California at the age of 10. He started our family in 1957. Never knew anyone who treasured and adored their family as much as Dad! He loved his family more than life itself! You always knew he would be there for you immediately If you ever needed him!
Emotionally, a repair or just help with a grocery list, you could always count on Dad! ("Johnny on the spot!") Remembering as a child how hard Dad worked and continued working hard his later years.
Dad fought with all his might to recover from his stroke over the past 4 months. Unfortunately, he continued to have brain bleeding and decline.
Dad was so Brave! His Faith was never ending his whole life! He is the strongest and smartest man we know!
We will miss you forever Dad!
Love Your Devoted Daughter and Son
