To the Furey family my deepest condolences. I stumbled on to John's obit while searching for a friend's obit. Memories of A very young John trying to play basketball in the driveway on Valley View Dr. popped into my head. It was a simple time that we all shared.

Mary Jo, it broke my heart hearing about John. I am so sorry for this terrible time you are going through.
But it still makes me smile remembering the fun we all had at the Jr. Lifeguard tournaments. John LOVED having a good time.
God Bless you and your family.
