    Always at my side, throughout the years, playin’ those drums without any fear. Today we cry one thousand tears knowing he’s nolonger near. There’s a new band forming beyond those pearly gates today. Keep on playin’ those drums, you know the way…. JP

    John..I’ve known you well for 35 years and I’ll surely miss you. We lost our good friend, Nick Mazziotti just last year and now you. I pray for you and yoyr family and this makes us all realize just how short life is. The world was a better place because of you and now heaven is the new drummers haven for you. Godspeed John and say hey to Nick for me. He loved you so much too. To his children, your dad was truly the best life could offer and a true friend indeed. No one can or will ever replace this giant. Bless you all. Bob Cavigliano

    Our hearts go out to John’s children, grandchildren, sister and the rest of his family. John loved all of his family and through our talks we felt like we knew each one individually. He will be sadly missed by us. He is in a much better place now and he is at peace.
