Sorry to hear of his passing. The Unks lived down the street from us in Bellefontaine Neighbors. Our parents were good friends. We all played  together as kids. Time seems to just slip away from us. It sounds like he had a wonderful life. Condolences to all.

I’m sorry to hear of John’s passing. I worked with John quite often and always enjoyed his personality and work ethic. He was a great asset to Space Systems!

Kathi, 

I am so sorry to hear of John’s passing. He was a very nice classmate at Riverview Gardens HS. I have you in my prayers at this time. He could always make everyone laugh. 

Peace to you and your entire family during this difficult time.

I 1st met John in 1960 thru my friendship with his brother, Rick. Through Rick, I got to know John pretty well. I'll never forget that charming, crooked smile or his silly sense of humor. Always the Jester! He was also one of the kindest, sweetest guys you'll ever meet (or I wouldn't have let him date my little sister in college!) I was devastated to learn of his passing and my heart goes out to his extended family. Like his brother, he fought the good fight. And he'll never be forgotten. R.I.P., my friend
