John Charles Gatti, Sr.

September 19, 1940 - February 5, 2015

U.S. Veteran

Share your Memorial with Family & Friends

Dear Mrs. Gatti and family, Please know that you are all in my thoughts. I just learned of John's passing. You might not remember me but many years ago, I am guessing 19067 or 1968, I had young John in one of my classes at HHS. Through him, I met you husband "Big" John and you. John SR. and I use to run into each other every so often, and it was always like we had just seen each other the week before, when it fact it was usually years. I held John in high regard and am proud to call him a dear friend. With deepest sympathy and respect. Peter M. Amati, Jr.

God be with you all at this sad time. John was a wonderful person and our family is sorry for your loss. Please know that John was a dear friend to my Dad. My Dad would fondly speak of John and so enjoyed the fun times shared at Holliston Hardware. My husband, Mike, too enjoyed time with John at the Holliston Hardware store. Mike admired and appreciated John’s humor at work. John was especially thoughtful to my family during the difficult time that my Dad was ill. He was one of the godsend friends that made an everlasting impact. Please extend our sympathy and we offer our prayers. Michelle Cunniff & family
