A very nice gentleman, known to me via the MABS-1 reunions, and a MABS-1 friend of my father Matteo (Larry) Pepe and my mother Helen Pepe. I just found this obit today, and am deeply sorry for the loss of this fine man. My condolences to his family.

John was a good and faithful brother for more than 41 years. We would like to extend our heartfelt sympathies.
He has completed the designs laid down on life's trestleboard, and having answered the last summons of the Grand Warden of Heaven, has now entered the Celestial Lodge above, over which the Supreme Architect of the Universe presides.
He has been called from his labors on earth to eternal refreshment in the Paradise of God.
