Dear Helen, Kris, Kathy and John,
So sorry to hear about Johns' passing. I can't tell you how much I miss Saturday morning coffee, with John , John Madreyks, Ken Prussak, and anyone else that stopped by West Lawn Park. We laughed a lot and smoked a lot and solved all the world problems. Those were special memories with special people. All after Friday's at the golf course playing 54 holes. Rest in Peace John,

My deepest sympathy to the Principato Family on the passing of Mr. Prince

I have terrific memories of Mr. Prince as a great coach and mentor. He taught many of us about basketball & about life. Any time I was up at West Lawn Park, it was great stopping in the office for a nice chat with him.

He was a great Man

God Bless you Mr. Prince

My deep sympathy to the Principato Family on the passing of Mr Prince

I have very fond memories of Mr Prince as a coach & mentor. He not only taught us to play basketball, he made it fun. There wasn't a time that I walked into West Lawn Park that we didn't have a chat, and that was often awhile back.

He was a great guy.

God Bless Mr Prince

Helen, words pale in comparison to your loss but I'll try. It was fun growing up with the younger Principato brothers at Westlawn Park. So many memories. Johnny was a kind and happy young man with a beautiful smile. May God bless you and your family.

Mrs. Prince, Kris, Cathy and my first and lifetime friend Johnny... I don't have words for you. Your Dad made an impact on so many life's on those Saturdays and Sundays. There were a few men who helped so many when we were kids and Mr. Prince was one of them. Forever in my heart. Kevin Crisham
