In Memory of John Passantino 1961 - 2009

This blog is for those of us who missed John's Funeral on 10 October 2009. I'll add photos and quotes to this blog for his family and friends.

I met John 32 years ago, under gray Seattle skies. We met at the school bus stop. Riding that bus to high school, we became fast friends. John's father was in the Navy, so he lived all over the world. He was born in Japan, lived in Olongapo, Philippines and also Pascagoula, Mississippi, Seattle, Washington, San Francisco and New Jersey. Of all the places he lived, New Jersey was his favorite.

If you knew John, then you'll understand one of the last things he said to me, "Dude, I married Sophia Loren."

That was John. I'll add more later.
