To my friend John!!!  Been a few years Buddy-since you i and others ran together .  You are missed.  
We had a real good run at it.  We strategized, outclassed and taught others how to play the game.  We were the originals. We  spent so much time together and were so close that we almost lived together.  I came to admire many things about you.  You were a very good consigliere (the best) Per Semper Fratelli- I sought your advice often.  I often think about you and Tony Alizio, Don and Dave Zanders and how many times we came to each others rescue. (Eravamo Pieni Di Vita)  We were almost invincible. 
John,  I clearly remember our trip to Mexico city and then the remaining time spent touring the County.  Could not have happened if you did not plan it.  We all educated each other in the field of life and helped each other along. I will always remember you and what a great family you had and how good Rhoda was to  you.  You two were dynamic together.

Rhoda,
You have lost a husband who stood by through the good times and the bad.  Sabrina has lost the man who was supposed to walk her down the aisle as well as the one man who will always be most proud of her.  Melonie has lost not only a father but also a grandfather to her children.  My heart goes out to all of you.  I will remember John for his humor (yes, he made me laugh) and for his very generous spirit.  Love always, Sis

My prayers go out to the Amendola  family at this most difficult time.  John was never to busy to help me with a union problem or just give his knowledgeable feed back.  He has help me and scores of others and will truly be missed.  I am lucky to have has the chance to know and worked with John.

Our Thoughts and Prayers are with You, Sabrina and Family in this time of Grief. May you find your Peace. Tony and John were sure great friends, I suppose they can continue that friendship in heaven.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.  May your memories bring you comfort.

My thoughts are with you & Sabrina, I will keep you in my prayers. Janey

My dear cousin, John, will definitely be missed by many. We had fun together being close in age, and I remember how much he enjoyed playing with electric trains. He had quite a set up in the basement. John was a great son, a loving husband and a wonderful father. A friend to many, and if you knew John, you were fortunate. I'll always love you, cousin! Rest in peace. Randy, Cecile, Christina, Kimberly and Timothy Altergott.

Our deepest sympathy in John's passing.  One thing which is certain is that heaven has welcomed a very special person.  John was truly a loving husband, father, grandfather and friend, roles that were all very important to him.  He enjoyed life and always had a smile upon his face.  Our families have enjoyed many special occasions together over the years and the fondest treasure will be all of the memories he has left behind to all of us.  He will truly be missed.
Jim and Pam Duel and Family

We are so sorry to hear about John's passing.  I will always remember the special things he did and memories he made for me.  Including my first ride on  a motorcycle, and the time he us a behind-the-scenes tour at the Museum of Science & Industry; and when he and Rhoda took me to an Arizona Outlaws game when I was visiting AZ; and all the wonderful food his Mom used to make!

He's now at peace and is with is daughter Sammi, parents, grandparents, uncles and aunts who love him, too.  I just wanted to send our love to John and his family and we'll keep you in our prayers.

John was a good family man and an excellent Father. His family came first and foremost. I thank John for his friendship and loyalty on the many roads that we traveled together. He was a great confidant and set an example in his daily life that most of us can only think about. Thanks for letting me be part of your journey John-you have been thought about often and you will be sadly missed.

Louie and Gina Cargiulo
