John was a leader all kids lookd up to San Leandro Boys club I ended up in his office a few times I went to the boys club from 1986 to 1993 The time I spent at the boys club was like a movie that plays out in my head I can remember when everybody got in trouble and had to run laps around the whole boys club in the summer of 1988 I learned a lot from being a member as a child John Will not be forgotten
John left a life time of experience in my life. Sharing his boxing knowledge and making me strong in my future in many ways more than just in boxing. Wish I could have thanks. But to his family I say thank you. George Sandoval. 2019
