St. John's Cathedral H.S. was small, and the class of '59 was very close knit. John's smile was a light that everyone wanted to go to. I am so glad to have seen him at our reunion, and will cherish that memory. God bless his family in their sorrow for a very good man.

God our Father,
Your power brings us to birth,
Your providence guides our lives,
and by Your command we return to dust.
Lord, those who die still live in Your presence,
their lives change but do not end.
I pray in hope for my family,
relatives and friends,
and for all the dead known to You alone.
In company with Christ,
Who died and now lives,
may they rejoice in Your kingdom,
where all our tears are wiped away.
Unite us together again in one family,
to sing Your praise forever and ever.
Amen

John will always be remembered as a sweet, gentle and caring man. His patience and kindness was awe inspiring. I still can recall our long jaunts from Rutgers to Paterson, and John's calm in the hectic traffic. He has brought 3 wonderful chilren into the world and lovely grandchildren. They are the better for his presence! He will be missed.
