Our deepest sympathies to the PASSERO family.
John was a dedicated husband and father who always put his family first. He was a great friend and confidant to me.
John would do anything for anyone, especially his family and friends.
I met John at work in 1996, we were both proud members of The Teamsters Local 282. John and I worked on a 2 year project together. We carpooled and were together 15 hrs a day. In all those hrs, never a misunderstanding or disagreement nothing but true friendship.
John had a great sense of humor. I remember on a job a worker would say “ good morning Vito” to John. I said “ did you change your name?” He laughed. The next day John started calling him by another name. The worker said to John “Vito that’s not my name” John responded” that’s ok
Vito isn’t my name”. Just a great sense of humor everyone loved him on the job.
After John retired we’d try and talk once a week or so. I’d call him on my ride home, reminded me of when we carpooled. I’ll really really miss that time we shared.
Rest in peace my friend. See you again.
