Just found out about John's passing. I went to school with John at Octorara. Over the past few years I got to know his son J.T. at school. My thoughts and prayers are with him and the rest of his family at this time of loss.
John was the best little league coach ever!
I will never forget Coach John's influence on my son when he was his little league coach. John instilled that you can do it attitude in him. He believed in him and all the other players on that little league team. He was the first coach that taught and told him he could pitch and guess what, he is still pitching. I am very shocked and sadden to hear of John's passing, I will miss seeing his smiling face around town. My sincere condolences to family.
