John passed away in 1995 after a long illness with melanoma. After graduating from Michigan State, he joined the cable industry as an accountant. During his career, John and Susan lived in Acton Massachusetts, Homestead Florida and Hickory North Carolina where they raised four beautiful children (one boy a piano prodigy). As a newcomer to Glen Ridge he made my transition to the social scene easy. John was always up to something. One summer night we decided to cool off by sneaking into the Glen Ridge Country Club for a late night swim around 1:00 AM. John proceeded to do a triple flip off the diving board making a perfect dive and a lot of noise. Only problem, the night watch heard the noise and called the police. We took off running down the golf course with a Glen Ridge cop car in hot pursuit - what a sight. We made a clean getaway. What can I say, John was always fun to be around.
