Condolences

When ever Johnny walked into the room he lite it up with that big, beautiful smile! I will always treasure the wonderful memories we shared, from the great family gatherings at the farm in Michigan to the fun parties we shared in Arizona. I have been blessed to have had a big cousin like Johnny who was one of the kindest and most generous people I have ever known. I know you loved Jesus and it showed in the way you lived your life! It brings a smile to my face knowing that you are now in His loving arms free from any pain today. You will be missed my brother until we see each other again. Cousin Matthew Matthew J Cuomo

Johnny Z was the best neighbor he would always help out. He was always the smiling face. He had a great family and they were enjoyable the babysit for. Melissa and Monique prayers, remember, memories can never be taken away and let’s not forget Gwen, she always had the snacks and goodies when babysitting. David Wood

It is with great sorrow that I found out of John's passing. John and I had a very close and trusting relationship for many years. He was much more than my friend, he was my mentor. John was the best man in my wedding and Patty was the maid of honor. While we all drifted apart and went in different directions I will always remember John with love and respect. He was my hero. My love reaches out to Patty and the entire family. Chuck Pinkerton Chuck Pinkerton
