Love you, Papa. We know you are watching over us every day. Andrea, Louis, & Luca
We wish to offer our most sincere and heartfelt condolences to all immediate family members, all other relatives, many lifelong associates and family friends of JOHN P. NAVE upon his most tragic departure from the scene ...
I only met Mr. and Mrs. Nave on a few occasions, at which time I found them to be simply great people, but have known his son Marty for more than 30 years, knowing him to be a very fine fellow, who always was a truly strong and supportive son to both of his parents ...
This is a most disappointing and extremely tragic end for Mr. Nave as he had many more productive years ahead of him ...
Not mentioned in his nice tribute was that as a member of the 102nd Cavalry Regiment, of the New Jersey Army National Guard, he would have been a recipient of the Tankers Badge and would additionally have been a recipient of the Bronze Star Medal along with his two awards of the Purple Heart ...
The name of JOHN P. NAVE shall be remembered most fondly by all those who ever met and knew him over time ...
STAND AT ATTENTION ... A SOLDIER IS PASSING !!!
