John, So very sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a great guy. I always remember him from my earliest days growing up when he managed us in Boys League. I would still run into him once in a while and he was always smiling and genuinely happy to talk. A great guy, who lived a great and interesting life, certainly someone to be very proud of as a father, a husband, and a real gentleman. The world is a lesser place without him. God Bless. - Scott Bell Sr and Family

My deepest sympathy for your loss. Always saw John in church and he was always smiling. He knew my Mom and Aunts from way back.
My sisters and I will miss seeing him.

Quinto was one of a kind and always had a great smile. He was a big contributor to Hughestown. When I was a kid, Quinto was a star with the Hamtown Tigers. I thought he was the best center fielder until Mickey Mantle came along. Jack Waters & Family
