OMG!! I have some wild stories about John but you that knew him will know what I am talking about. He always protected us girls especially my sister. R.I.P.

I remember John too. He sat behind me in Math, I think it was, and he had such LONG legs they always stuck me in the back. I always kidded him about being Daddy long legs. RIP John,

I remember John being in my homeroom, and all his great plays on the football field, basketball court and track. He left us too soon. The fast lane caught up to him. My parents gave me a book he published in 1987 named Cruisin' with the Tooz, about his life after OCHS. You would get to know him in another way from this book.

RIP Big Guy.

The John I knew from second grade at Otjen until shortly before he left us had an enormous heart made of gold. RIP.

I remember him as a sweet, polite guy. Smile on his face.
