John Grassia Obituary And Cause of Death
John’s story reads like a tale from some fabulous book of chivalry and honor. Ever since his time at Schalmont High School, through his time with the New York State Trooper, up and including this heroic tale, John has served and given of himself in every way possible.
Sadly, his valiant epic came to a heart-wrenching conclusion on March 8th, 2024, making sure that those he rescued could sanctify themselves to make it through another day safely. His final moments, devoted to his love for flying and an absolutely unselfish ethos, were a fine tribute to the very essence of his being.
For further information, one may refer to the obituaries of Joyce Bender-Cooper and Evan Pritchett, where John’s remarkable journey and contributions are undoubtedly celebrated.
