WOW! I have worked with John for a long time at Radio Shack, and it came as a shocker to find this information out. My manager friends and I would always call him "old man John" even my wife. We thought he was a great guy. I'm so sorry he had to leave us and this world but he's happy now and knowing that makes me happy. John, my wife and I are going to miss your jokes and humor!! To John's family, we're sorry, but know that he was loved by many. Miss ya old man!!

I am so sorry for your loss. I knew John from RadioShack. He was always so kind to me. Helped me out when I first became a manager and allways helped me with product request. I remember that he would personally drop them off to me on his way home. He will be missed and I wish the best for his family.

My name is Alex Landolfo, and I am sitting here with my fellow associate Zahir Noorani, and we are very saddened by this news. We both had the tremendous pleasure of working with and for John in the past. He had a very kind heart, and will be enormously missed by all of his peers here at Radio Shack. His family is in our prayers.

I sit in stunned shock. Practically speechless with a tremendous sadness in my heart. I tried to call John today to see how he was doing and ran a Google search for no particular reason and found this obituary. I am truly sorry, Pam and Jan, for your loss. I already miss John and truly loved him. He had a kind heart, a quick wit, and a wonderful smile.
