Sorry to hear of your Father's passing. I didn't really know him but I found myself at Morris Radiator often as a kid so probably met him there. His obituary speaks of a happy well liked man and WWII Veteran. I'm sure your proud of him. Love ya. Take care.

Growing up in The Neighborhood, I remember John walking, smiling and always ready to chat. But, my fondest memories were at Christ Baptist Church where he was never afraid to offer his opinion, but always ready to lend a hand when needed. As he grew older his favorite saying was I remember when and a story would follow. I fondly remember when we would slip away from a Church function along with Tony for a sip of wine and a chat. Our condolences to the family and to all of us for another member of a generation gone home.

Joe, Gary, Ronnie & Families, heaven just became a better place. A special man, giant among men who left a legacy of fun, friendship, love, and respect. I think what will always stay with me, aside from some very funny memories, is the enormous respect I had for John. Plus the memory of how respectful he was of everyone he knew. I was a better person and fortunate to have had the honor to have known him. God Bless him and all of his family.
