Uncle John will surely be missed. He is one of the sharpest men around. We are sure he is dancing with our Mom our Buba in heaven tonite on New Year's Eve.

Uncle John was always one you could count on for coming up with a strange game or event for the reunion. He was always young at heart and thought of family first. He will be miss by all.

I remember... at the time what seemed like hundreds of "Super Pinky" balls being thrown out of a box by him for us to play with... every year something to make me think.. quarters making lines on my face... Always when I thought of Uncle John I would smile.. and always I will.
