Dear Duce!

I could not be more grateful to the opportunity you gave me twenty five years ago to work for you at a time when I needed it most and had no career outlook or even employment.  It was your gracious heart, caring hand and incredible sense of self worth and zest for life that guided every step of the way and got me to where I am today. You will be deeply missed. I'm positive the Lord has a very special place in Heaven for you where only the greatest minds, leaders and people dwell. Until we meet again, e tante ma tante grazie per tutti!

To the family, friends and all,

Will be praying During this Difficult Time,

Almighty God, our protector, let us trust in you to carry us through this difficult time.  Jesus, hear our cries as we mourn those who've left us.  Whatever tomorrow may bring, we will praise your name, Amen.

I would like to send my sincere condolences to John's family. Considering I only met Dino on a handful of occasions he made a huge impact on me. I first came to America from England to visit my friends Mark Ryan and Kieran Farragher around the year 2000 as they were finishing Uni and they introduced me to their friends... what a wonderful, close group of people and Dino was always at the heart of everything. It was a real privilege to get to know Dino over the proceeding years and share some fantastic times as I came back to visit the guys, in Virginia, Atlanta, New York, Atlantic City.... some of the greatest memories. Dino was always welcoming, extremely generous, endlessly entertaining and completely genuine. He had so many great qualities, I will truly miss him but will remember him fondly x
May God bless you all during this time of grieving, turn to Him for your strength to get through this...

John was Michael’s cousin - he will be deeply missed by our entire family 💔

We are so sorry ..

I was lucky enough to Au Pair…
2014
I was lucky enough to Au Pair for John and Kiran in 2013/2014 and become part of their wonderful family. I always felt like I’d hit the family lottery, I knew as soon as I met them, they’d be part of my life forever. John was one of the funniest and kindest people I’ve ever met. An incredible father to Shaila and Nico, which was a joy to witness! He always made me feel so welcome. He was the kind of person everyone loved to be around, he walked into the room and you knew you were in for a laugh! I’ll always remember the amazing steaks, that he would cook out on that grill whatever the weather! My Dad still talks about those “proper steaks” from when they came to visit! I’ll always hold that year and all the visits afterwards in my heart with such fond memories and love. You’ll be truly missed. Kiran, Shaila, Nico and all of John’s family, I’m thinking of you all and sending all my love.
We always loved seeing John on the deck grilling dinner just about every day of the week no matter the weather.  The grill was (and still is) right up close to the back door and John would pop out to flip the meat or whatever was on the grill and go back inside, or if he saw us out on our deck he'd smile, wave, and say hi.  We are going to miss that.  It's a random neighborly memory, but so imprinted on our family that that was the first thing our (adult) kids mentioned when we shared the sad news with them.  I hope that grill gets just as much love with its new family.
