John was in my Amway group. He spoke highly of toastmasters to me. He was loved by everyone. So kind n caring. I drove to a few functions w him n because he knew I was afraid of heights..he would drive in the middle lane if we were crossing a bridge. He also went w me one mother's day while we ni put flowers on my mom's grave. I will never forget John...

John was a sweet wonderful friend. I met him through Rich Jarosh. He always helped me in the kitchen when I was cooking dinner for friends. He had a big heart and a devout catholic. Sorry I missed the services, just found out. I will miss him dearly. Laurie Saccani

I met John at toastmasters many years ago. He is a kind gentle man, always willing to help you in any way he could. His smile lit up the room. We are very sad to hear of his passing. He will be truly missed by many. We will hold him and his family up in prayer .

John was a Great Zeta Beta Tau Brother. He was one of the few Brothers who could still fit into his ZBT jacket!
We will miss his steadfastness and cheerful optimism dearly.
Our deepest condolences to you all.
