John was an active parishioner at St. Teresa RC Church in Runnemede. He retired from the Camden County Municipal Utilities Authority (CCMUA). John was a die-hard Eagles fan, and raised his daughters as such. He loved going on cruises, as much as he enjoyed going to Disney World, and the Jersey Shore. He loved Roscoe and Ryan, his cats, watching detective procedural television shows, but above all, he loved spending time with his wife and daughters.
Service and interment are private at the request of the family.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in John's memory to: Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, PO Box 22324 New York, NY 10087 (www.lls.org)
