Over the past 20 years, John has been a best friend. We got together often. And every single time we talked there were two themes.
One was Stewart's ice cream. John's favorite was Black Sweet Cherry; mine was Maple Walnut. He could make his bowl of ice cream last forever---I scarfed mine down in a minute.
The second theme, a lot more meaningful, was his family. Every time we got together he talked about his love for Gayle and his daughters. Being the dad of 3 daughters, I could relate. And he expressed his pride for his grandkids. Through him I traced their growth---school, sports, college, careers. I could feel his joy and love and pride.
I think Stewart's will miss John; but more than them, I'll deeply miss our visits, our long, deep conversations. May he rest in peace. Jack Gillespie

I will always have wonderful memories of John. He and Gayle are wonderful friends. We would go cruising and on trips to Maui more than once. This is a picture from one of our boat trips. John always made me laugh. His love for Gayle was something he was proud of and used to sing songs aloud at dinner to honor her. We had some great times. When my husband died John told me to take as long as I needed to deal with it. I always enjoyed going to their home for a meal. I will miss him as I imagine all that knew him will also do. Gayle, you have my love and anything I can do or say to try and make it easier for you. Love Kathy Agansky
