Just a short note to John's son Kelly who was my director for many years at Baywood Court, CA. It was a privilege to know of your devotion to your father, hear of the fun you had when you visited him and his independence and love of dancing. I also recall the stories from WWII. Your family posting on the WWII website encouraged me to create a listing for my own father. Kelly, you may be proud that your father was such a strong influence in your life. My condolences to you and those you love. Lindsey Coooper

It was with joy and honor we got to know John around 2009. John's friendly disposition, love for dancing, and smile made us instant fan of his! Along with love, we send him a "Lucky Coin" to carry and dance in the next world. A tribute has been made to John on the band's website at: www.luckyafternoon.com (scroll down to news). Fly high my friend...!!!

My first job was at the Milk Bar & I have a lot of memories of that time. John was a fair & honest boss who more times than not had a smile on his face that usually got bigger whenever his kids or grandkids were around. I'm sure he'll be greatly missed. You're all in my prayers & I'm sorry for your loss.

What a fun loving person John was. I will always remember John and I dancing together at the concerts in the park in Lykens, PA. He will surely be missed by all those who knew and loved him.
