“Please accept my deepest sympathies for you and your family. John was instrumental in helping me and Ian Threadgold in spinning up our Field Safety Leadership course for students running field camps. He brought such positive energy and sincere concern for keeping the students safe in the field that shone through every interaction we had. He was wonderfully welcoming to me, an SEG outsider, and never lost a chance to further our goals--all with a twinkle in his eyes and a smile on his lips.”

“John was a joy to work with and always offered a positive note to all interactions. I have not considered a bagel the same after meeting John, which brought him as much joy as me. Being from the northeast, I will have a bagel in John's honor. Deepest sympathies to John's wife and family.”

John will be deeply missed, and his legacy of kindness and dedication will continue to inspire us all.”

Mallory Trumbore wrote a sympathy message

“I worked with John at SEG for a decade (including when we were still in the office!), and his positive contribution to the workplace culture was unmatched. He greeted everyone with a smile, a warm welcome, and if you were lucky, a dark chocolate. He brought the same energy and positivity to the virtual world in a time when we all needed it the most. My condolences to his loved ones.”

“Hello Pina and family, I knew John from work. He was such a gem. Always a smile on his face and trying to bring a smile to everyone he met. Every time I hear "Happy Monday (Tuesday, Wednesday, ...) I will think about him. He started that phrase at work and, I have to admit, I use it myself now. He was selfless and concerned about the people that were around him. I am honored to have had the pleasure of meeting and working with him. My sincere condolences.”

“Pina and family, John was many things. A son, husband, father, grandfather, and a friend to many. His positive nature and love of life brightened every day. He has left a legacy of not what he did, but who he was. What a testimony! May God bless all of you during this time. Tom Agnew”
