There was always a star quality to my Uncle Johnny and Auntie Dee, a leading man to his leading lady. When they would visit it always felt like a holiday! The energy in the room would just lift with love and laughter. Uncle Johnny and Auntie Dee always made you feel special and they showed their support by always showing up to life’s events: weddings, showers, meeting the newest member of their big extended family (and fan club), anniversaries, summer celebrations, birthdays, and funerals. Uncle Johnny I will miss you terribly, I took it for granted you would be here always. I remember your smooth voice and laugh. I remember as a kid I loved the smell of your pipe, such sophistication. You always dazzled me with your artistic abilities. You were one of the reasons I had such a wonderful childhood. You and Auntie Dee were always so generous with your sincere interest and caring. Auntie Dee you continue to amaze and inspire. Thank you. I love you both so very much. John Robert and Linda Jean we are so sorry for your loss. The photo I posted was from Grandma and Grandpa’s 50th? wedding anniversary at their house in Bridgeport…most of us grandkids are there. Such a long time ago! Sending much love to you and family. Cheryl Varholak Prisco and Richard Prisco.

Grandpa John was one of the kindest people we have ever known. We were neighbors with his daughter, Linda and Dee and John became family. All the kids just adored him. We mourn his passing and send our love and prayers to Gramma Dee, Linda, Paul, John, Karen, Michael, Kara, Scott, Kyle and Shae and their spouses and all his great grandchildren. May angels lead him in.

Dear Dee, Johnny & Linda, We are very sorry to hear of your loss. Dee and John were the best neighbors on Lumanor Drive. Dee told the funniest stories that always made our Mom laugh. John Sr., always the gentleman, puttering and fixing things. Johnny and Linda added to the many group of kids playing kickball in the Circle. As in those days, Dee and our Mom, in the summer would say "Go outside and play", then Dee went back to teaching and we saw Grandma Rosie as she watched Linda and Johnny. Then you moved to Random Road and we thought you had the coolest living room we ever saw. Thank you for the wonderful memories of our time with your family on Lumanor Drive and may John Rest in Peace. From the Barbieri Girls, Barbara, Diane, Michele, Janet.

Lawrence Varholak Sr. was my grandfather, Johnny’s younger brother. I didn’t get to see John and as much as I’d like but every now and then I was able to get over to see Dee and John in Stratford or see them at a family affair. I was always greeted like a grandchild to them and it was like having a third set of grandparents. They were always so excited and curious about what’s going on in my life. Always welcomed by infectious kisses by both. John was such an easy going loving man and being with him was always warming and filled me up. John had a great sense of humor. I love him and will miss him. The brothers can finally be together in heaven Eddy, Lawrence and John. Love you, will miss you. -Nicholas

Very sorry for your loss. John was a great man who acted as a fine example of what it means to be a committed spouse, a terrific parent, and someone who makes a difference in peoples' lives. May he rest in peace.
