my deepest sympaphy
Cathy, I am still in shock to hear about John’s sudden passing. It saddens me to know he’s gone and how hard this is on your family. John was so full of life, and oh how he loved his music. I always saw him at work with his headphones on, and as I’d pass by, he would sometimes sing the song he was listening to. He always made me smile, even on the most stressed out day. He usually could make me laugh with his jokes too!! He was missed when he left MHRC. My heart out to you. Linn Bodle, Diet Tech @ MHRC

Dear Cathy and Daughters,
We would like to extend our deepest, along with our thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
Dear Cathy, Megan, and Cathleen, We are so sorry to hear about Johnny. He was my oldest cousin. When I was younger, I always slept over Karens, in West Haven, there would be Johnny at the bottom of the stairs playing his records on the stereo, “This is the Big D, WDRC with a big hit from, The Boxtops….he was a lot of fun when it came to music. He always made our family parties fun. I will always appreciate him comming to our house and painting. He was like having the home decorating channel come to my house, you should do this, put this here, go buy a new T.V. (and I did). He got into decorating like I do, so he made it more fun. Like having a big brother, but he was just my cousin, who I loved, you will always be a part of our gang forever, John..I will miss you a lot. Debbie
