John proudly served in the U.S. Air Force. He was employed by CBT/Bank of New England for many years followed by 20 plus years of service at Waterford Walmart. He was an extremely kind and generous man who truly enjoyed driving the scenic roads of Connecticut, hanging out with his family and spending time at the Mohegan Sun.
