Dear John, We will always remember you when we see those yellow cans. I will name mine John, after you.
John we really all appreciate your hard work. You have a lot to show. Even if we complained about our snow or trash once in a while, your overall job was superb. May you have many happy retirement years with your entire family.
Hey John! You did an amazing job. I don’t know how you put up with all the complaints all day. Whoever takes you over will have a lot to live up to!

May G-d bless you for all you’ve done for the community John. You’ve really turned the town around for the better during your years at the helm. Thank you.
john. i would watch you with awe how you would sit thru those long planning board meetings after a long hard day at work and try to figure out how best to plan the expansion of the community and its needs. you were one of the board members that i can truly say, you had the town in mind and nothing else. i would admire you straightforwardness. you can walk away like a true hero !!!!
