To John's (JJ's, Johnny's) family, my apologies for this tardy response; I only learned of John's passing today. He was a gentleman and a very kind person. He shared his expertise with me on the scanning electron microscope at work when I had a need - I will miss him very much. We had numerous chats about family and he was always thoughtful of his family - isn't that what it's all about in the end? If there is anything that I can do for your family, anything, please me know. Sincerely, John Alan Kotyk

Mrs. Johnson, John and Michael. I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your dad and husband. I agree whole heartedly with Dean Vacarro. He has taught me things as a young child that I continue to pass along to my own boys.
I hope your family finds comfort in loving memories and years of laughs and stories.
XO Heather

Mrs. Johnson, John, and Mike,
I am so sorry to hear your father and husband. I got to know him well growing up in our Amundsen Street neighborhood. I remember him fondly as a kind, gentle, sincere, and caring man. Even more, as a kid I remember him as an "old-fashioned" father. I mean that most respectful way. I mean that he meant what he said, and he said what he meant. Not only did he teach his own boys right from wrong, but also us neighborhood kids as well. He wasn't afraid to speak to us about morality--speaking plainly and simply about things we were doing, or about life. He was also warm, loving, and gentle as a father as I recall--a wonderful example to us boys in the neighborhood. The world needs more men--and fathers--like him. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Anita and Family,
I am a neighbor and I am saddened by the news of John's passing. I recall seeing John at least once, often twice a day walking by the house with his dog. He was always offering a greeting and a smile and a little conversation about the weather, the dog, his love for taking a walk around the area. "Hi John!" "Hi Dave!"
It's such a small thing, I suppose, but that's the kind of thing that sews the fabric of the neighborhood. Though I really didn't know John, I'll miss him. God bless John, and you all in your loss.

John was an amazing man and fellow coworker, a part of our Covidien family, one thing that John always did was address you by your name with respect, he was a kind and gentle man always willing to help, he spoke highly of his family and always had a certain gentleness about him. I am very fortunate to have worked with John, you will be missed.

John trained me for several months on the SEM before I left Covidien two years ago. He was super sweet and so patient with me. He was always speaking of his family with such love. He was a truly kind man and I will always think very fondly of him. RIP

I worked with John during my time at Covidien R&D. John was an incredible Engineer that loved his work and had great attention to detail. But he was an even better human being. He always spoke of his family and his love for birds.

I am one of the many coworkers from Covidien/Medtronic who worked with John. He was always a true gentleman, willing to help anyone who asked for his assistance. He was interested in meeting and getting to know each of us as a person, not just a coworker. He was a part our work family. He is one of the people who made a lasting impression on those who met him. He will be deeply missed by so many. Love, Darlene Nebinger
