I met John in 1967 when I began my job with Ford Motor, and Immediately we became friends, I worked with and for John for 30 years, and he was a very good friend and boss to me. John was kind and a very good person to be around. I loved John's stories about his time in the Army Air Force during World War two, and his descriptions of Biak Island in the South Pacific. Rest in Peace my friend.

Marie, Paul and families, please accept our sincerest sympathies during this time of sorrow. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Joe and Dolores Mercurio, Livonia
We are so happy that we were able to see John at the family reunion. For me, it was the first time I had met him. He was so friendly and nice to talk to at the reunion. Looking at his picture, I can sure see the resemblance to our Mercurio family. Our love and sympathy to your families. Alan and Sandy Mercurio.
Marie, I am sorry to hear of your fathers passing. My thoughts are with you and your family.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

John was so generous to me as I was researching our Mercurio family history. May God welcome him into the light of His face.
Marie, Please accept my deepest sympathy on the passing of your dad. I was so sorry to hear the news. I hope that the words of the Bible that say "Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted" will be especially true for you. My prayers will be that you find comfort in your faith as you make it through this very difficult time. God Bless You and your wonderful family. In Faith & Sympathy, -Kim Ritz
