This is Florence, Massimo´s younger sister. I loved when my brother´s friends came over to the house. John was one of them. He was always so kind to me and my parents.
I will never forget him.

It's been over 60 plus years that I've known John. He was my brother from a different mother.

His first new car was a 1964 midnight blue Sports Fury and he took me to the Army Induction Center in it in 1965. Then he raised his family and got a family car. When he had the chance, he got another '64 Sports Fury and built it better than the original one!

He was my biggest, best friend, A.K.A. Ricky. He as a great down to earth friend with a lovely wife and family. Debbie and I shared a lot of good times and family times together with John and Marija. He is truly missed by Debbie and I and our family.
