Such sad and shocking news. I've known JJ my whole life, he was a neighbor, and a friend. Such a great guy, and I will miss him dearly. RIP buddy. My condolences to the family.
Nicole Wong left a message on September 17, 2023:
You were my dear and loving neighbor who watched me grow up. You watched me as a crying baby, talk gibberish to him as a kid, and see me off for college. You would water and take care of beautiful plants that thrived with color, watch over the neighborhood with my mom, and come by to our house to give our dog some treats and love. You left everlasting memories and a big impact on my life. Your big smile will be dearly missed. Rest In Peace 🕊️

As kids JJ and I went to Sheepshead Bay HS. We also worked together on the corner of Ave U/ E 15 St. in the bagel store working 12-8 AM. I also went to school with Lynn and my Aunt Fannie was the family’s neighbor. JJ was funny as well as a Chop Breaker. I remember he was great at catching shoplifters on our shift and made me laugh plenty of times. My condolences goes out to his all his family and friends and he will be remembered. Even though we didn’t keep in touch as much, I will remember the times we shared

Remembering a gentle soul, John J. Messina, Cousin John, we enjoyed your kind hearted nature and caring ways with others. We admired your many hard earned achievements, especially earning a seat on the NY Stock Exchange and becoming well respected in the financial arena for your integrity and success. We enjoyed your culinary skills in the kitchen and ability to cook anything and well. We loved your sharp mind, keen intellect, and ability to fix almost anything.
