I Knew John, Ella, and their Mom as we all lived at the Atrium at 33 Elmhurst Avenue together for many years. They were all such a wonderful family and we sang lots of nights to the wee hours. Due to me moving out of the building I lost contact with John but have always thought of him and your family many times and fondly remember all the laughter and fun we had over the years. John was a wonderful man and so kind and caring. God has him now and he is in his eternal glory. Will have a Mass said for John and will keep him and your family in my prayers.
John was one of my best friends at Summit ( but we first met at Uplands in the late ‘60s). He and I shared many stories during our many ‘walks’ at the club and I can’t tell you how many times I told the jokes he told us.
He took care of his parents; he took care of all of his siblings. He was a proud man and we were all very proud of him. Salu…. my friend…will always miss you…. Ira Traves
