John's married forty four years to his lovely wife, Debbie
Their kids are Robbie, Cindy, Mark; Yes, proud parents of three
They love their five grandchildren and wish more often they'd see
New Jersey's home, with their three dogs, all happy as can be
He coached for all three of the kids, for baseball and softball
Thanksgiving yearly football game, with neighbors one and all
He loves to do some cooking, and he has since kids were small
Now both his sons are chefs, perhaps that’s where they got their call
John mostly loves his baseball, but he is an all sports man
He is not from New York, but he's a Jets and Yankees fan
Still goes to work, on Sundays too, so watches when he can
To keep writing about his kids and ball, is his game plan
In high school, played banjo in Mummers string band, New Year's Day
He writes about Mango and Bert, with hearts so big, they pray
His stories are such fun to read, and he's got more to say
One of the best reviewers, who so often comes my way
A baseball celebration, and our invite we extend
To everyone at FanStory, let's hope all will attend
We'll hit some right out of the park, a grand slam we will send
To wish you Happy Birthday, John, our teammate and our friend
