Our deepest sympathy & prayers. Very sorry to hear of John’s death. John was a great friend of our family in addition to being a special person he was also an exceptional musician, his knowledge of music & the instruments he played will never be forgotten.
May he rest in peace near his original homestead.

I was so sorry to hear of John’s passing. He was a Special Classmate and well deserved the name Special K. How sweet! I will miss him.
My Love and Deepest Sympathy,

Dear Family,
I am very sorry to hear that John passed away. I was the accordionist in the Martin Giza/Polish American Polka Band from Houtzdale in the 1950’s. John played the sax, clarinet, and sang. We all had great fun together, and I will never forget him. He was kind, thoughtful, and witty. They were the good old times!
