He is a graduate of Temple University with a B.A. degree in English, and received a certified webmaster degree from Berkeley Training Center. He is also a graduate of Montgomery Community College. "To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die." (Thomas Campbell) He will be greatly missed and never forgotten by his brothers Manuel, Jose Luis and Eduardo; and sisters Blanca Uribe-Barley, Marta Uribe-Mattia, Rosa Uribe and their spouses; his 7 nieces, 7 nephews and 3 great nieces. Services: viewing on Saturday, May 5 at 11:00 a.m. at Nicos C. Elias Funeral Home, 1227 W. Hamilton St., Allentown. Funeral service at 12:00 noon will be followed by military honors.

To all of John's family and friends, I grieve together with you at his loss. I worked with John for many years at Verizon in Valley Forge. He was an intelligent, decent, devoted worker and Friend. He was very kind and thoughtful and he was deep. I wish I could turn back the clock and go back and spend some more time enjoying his company and being his friend.
