JOHN BINGHAM Obituary

BINGHAM--John Kennedy, died Tuesday, July 26, 2022. John, Ken, Dad, radiated love and joy. A fountain of compassion and dedication, he committed his life to advocating for migrants. He inspired others through the gentleness and generosity with which he treated all around him, serving others and striving to make everyone feel included and valued. "Family first" he preached and practiced. He was profound in his faith. The funeral will be on Monday in Ber- cenay-en-Othe, France. He made the world more graceful; it is a dimmer place without him. His wife Agnes, his children John, Thomas, Jeremy and Matthias and their partners, family and many friends will miss him dearly.

My deepest sympathy goes out to the entire Bingham family. He's with his college friends Chris and Vinnie now.
May God help you all through this time of sorrow. i can tell from experience that he will live on in all the good memories.
Remember me with smiles and laughter.
If you can only remember me with tears and
sorrow;
Then perhaps it's better not to remember me at all.

May he rest in peace........

I was very sorry to hear of John's untimely passing. I knew John, as well as several of his siblings, at St. John's University. He was just a lovely fellow and thoroughly engaged on campus, Greek life, Muscular Dystrophy Dance Marathon and of course, Student Government, serving 2 terms as president. His generous spirit, his kindness, ability to listen and draw people in were qualities already evident in him. For all of his accomplishments, John maintained his humble way. May God bless his gentle soul and guide his family at this difficult time.

My heart's deepest condolences to John's family. John was a wonderful person to work for and with at Catholic Charities. He was a mentor in work-life and in faith-life. He shared stories about his family and the love he had for them was beautiful to see. John walked in faith and shared a light that was marvelous and one of a kind.
So very sorry for your loss, my family and I will keep you in our prayers for you to find strength always.

I send my sincere condolences to the family and friends on the loss of their dear loved one. I know he will be greatly missed. He left his imprint of his love and kindness and generosity on all who knew him, specially on his family. The holy writings say, "A good name is better than good oil, and the day of death is better than the day of birth." - Ecclesiastes 7:1. May the God of tender mercies comfort you all in this time of your sorrow.
