Met John at his 6th birthday party at his home in lovely Penn Square Village some 68 years ago…..John was a character from grade school thru high school and beyond….he could always be counted on to participate in any sporting, social and life events through the many decades we hung around. In his adult years, John was an awesome softball player and a long-hitting golfer (at times he was renowned as “Johnnie Three-wood”! He’ll be missed!
Tommy was a year ahead of me in school, but we played ball together, had some laughs. He was a good guy. RIP, John.
