In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial donations may be made to a scholar fund to benefit the future education of John’s sons, Jason and Sean. Contributions made to the family may be sent to the funeral home address and will be placed in an account for the children. If flowers are sent, the family requests that floral arrangements do not include gladiola flowers, since John did not particularly care for this specific flower.
