"I'll always remember John for his friendly and enthusiastic personality, love of the Goth scene and as the first promoter in Philly's Goth clique that actually took a chance and booked Carfax Abbey to headline one of his events. It meant a lot to us then and still means a lot to us now. He was a warm and genuine person who is still very sadly missed."

​"It was another night after a busy Dark Corner, which had been punctuated by an incident in which a well-known patron had gotten into an altercation with
a non-regular. John was being pursued around the lounge by Ulana, who was fretting. Thom and I were packing up his DJ gear in preparation for our own departure, but we were watching and listening as Ulana proclaimed, "We shouldn't let in anyone we don't know!" John stopped short, turned around, and looked at her, astonished. "They're called customers, Ulana!""
