He loved creating the deal, he thrived in the challenge of making it happen. Retirement or slowing down was not in his game plan, he was still working at his time of death. John was truly happy behind the wheel of one of his cars. The love affair was lifelong staring with Nash Metropolitans, a corvette, many Volkswagen beetles, BMWs, his Alfa Romeo, and his Porsche. He loved all kind of auto racing especially F1. If it had 4 wheels he wanted to talk about it. John's favorite place was Long Beach Island NJ.
