                        He was the loving grandfather of 12 grandchildren. John 
                        was a proud Veteran who served in the Army during World 
                        War II. 
						
						He began his career with 
                        the Port Authority where he worked for 36 years and 
                        retired as Assistant Chief of Operations at JFK Airport.

                        venues.
