My eyes are filled with tears as I write this message... I've worked with John for the past 15yrs with Turner Interiors.... 8 yrs ago I gave my notice to John in the NYC Office and he wouldn't except it.... I needed to step away from Turner NY for personal reasons and John understood this.... But he saw the value in me and suggested a relocation to another Turner Office... To me that sums up the essence of John Thomann.... He sees the value in each and every person he encounters....I will forever be grateful for that patience and foresight he had shown me years ago... I will forever be appreciative for my time spent with him... From the bottom of my heart please accept my deepest condolences and know that John is in my families thoughts and prayers, not just for today but for a lifetime.....

I worked for Bovis on Time Warner and worked with John on an almost daily basis. He was a great builder, a consummate professional and alwyays a good guy. He was a real credit to Turner and one of the best guys I ever worked with. His passing is a real loss to NYC Construction. My deepest condolences to his family.

The Manhattan College alumni community shares the grief, and is now praying for our fellow alumni and the family at this time. The Alumni Office has been informed. As well as the Jasper Jottings community that I personally can reach. We are all a little poorer now. "No man is an island, entire of itself ... any mans death diminishes me". We are sorry for your loss.
