PRIVATE CREMATION
Both John and I graduated from NHP Memorial High School in the class of 1978. John actually graduated early, mid-year, since he had already embarked on his business pursuits. Last week, I Googled our graduating class. Over these nearly 50 years, this was only the second time that I looked up our class. I guess that I am in that group of alumni who graduate, become involved in the next stages of their lives and regrettably do not remain in touch. Appearing at the top of my search results was news of John’s passing.
My family and I moved from Queens to New Hyde Park shortly after the beginning of 5th grade. I entered NHP Road School with the year…
So sad to hear of this terrible news. Our boys grew up together at the Road school and played CYO and Little League together. Sending los of prayers and love to Laura and the family at this difficult time.
My family and I have wonderful memories of John. Our sons played soccer together since they were little kids! Lots of games, wings and beer afterwards! Yankees games and nets basketball with the boys!
We will never forget the love and care he had for his family and a true friend and gentleman! We will miss you my dear friend! God bless you and your family! So long!
So sorry for your loss. My prayers are with your family and friends. John had a great impact on so many people. Many of us New Hyde Park people worked for him in the late 70's-early 80's at the gas stations. He taught us the value of hard work, work ethnics, and responsibility. Rest in Peace.
I am so deeply saddened by Mr. Schoenbergs passing. He was such a sweet and kind soul and cared so deeply for CSHS and its students.
I've personally never had him as a teacher, but when I would see him he always had a smile on his face and an energy that could brighten a dark room. he truly was such a loving and kind soul, and I hope he rests easy in a better place 💔 nothing but prayers and love for him
