John was a great friend and teammate in our youth and later years.  Through him I got meet his wonderful wife, Margie!


John was always a nice guy in high school.  I had lost track of him over the years, but will remember him fondly.  My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family.   

I worked with John at Moore Group/Windsor Group. He was truly a great man. Professional, yet fun at the same time! I will never forget those years! Fly high my friend! We will meet again one day!

I worked with John for about 15 years.  He was an amazing leader, mentor and friend to me.  I will always remember John for his integrity and especially for how much he cared about people.   Every person was important to John, and I want his family to know that he positively impacted the careers and lives of countless people who worked with him and knew him.  John, I am honored to have had your friendship over the years, and treasure the time spent with you.  

John and I were colleagues at Unitrin / Kemper for over 10 years. John was a brilliant businessman who was well respected by all. And he was my friend. I will always cherish our trips to Wrigley Field and to PNC Park to see our Pirates and Cubs play. I will think of John  every time the Steelers or Pirates do well knowing that he has a smile his face up in heaven. Rest In Peace my friend.
See you on the other side.



   Tomorrow, Kim and I will attend John's service and officially say good bye to our friend and neighbor.   How many times we talked "through the fence" these past nearly six and a half years!  Warm memories for sure!   And for Kim . . . fondly remembering the many conversations about  baseball and cheering together at the Preds' games.   We send our love and prayers to Margie and family.

I worked a with John on a professional level and enjoyed his company very much on a personal level. He was one of the good guys, you could count on his word without question. My sincere condolences to Margie and the family. I’m sure John is now a scratch golfer up in heaven. 

Dear Margie, 
So thankful you and "puppy" came across our paths that day on Harrier Ct..God is amazing in how he connects people together.  You and John are forever in our hearts no matter where our earthly paths have taken us.  His picture is exactly how I remember him. I am so thankful for Jesus and as I had the opportunity to pray at my mother's funeral years ago, the revelation of life in heaven as being SO real was magnified to me.  All I could say was "thank you Jesus, that this is only a temporary separation, as I know I will see my mama again." God is so good, and faithful.   Love you Bunches, my special friend.


My friend and teammate at Bethany College. A lasting friendship for over 53 years. Truly one of God’s good guys. R.I.P. Moon. Sending prayers to Margie and all family members.

I worked (played) with John for many years in Marietta, GA.  We were fortunate to spend time together running (along with some other slower folks) during our lunch time talking sports, family, and story telling (not work!).  
RIP my work friend and running mate, you reached the finish line ahead of me!

My sincere condolences to all the family members.

I worked at Windsor Group in his department many years ago. God bless his family and friends during this difficult time. 

So very sorry to lose this awesome man.  I worked with him years ago and he was a great boss.

A genuinely fine man and a good friend and leader. 

A picture  of John and me at the celebration of the 125th year of Football at Bethany College.  John was instrumental in getting this event planned and we both were members of the only undefeated team in the history of the college in 1966.

John was a great teammate and friend while in Bethany College, Through his efforts we have gotten back in touch over the recent years.  My deepest sympathy to Margie and all friends and family.

What an exceptional and upright man! I will treasure the memories we made while working together.   There were good times, crazy times and some rough times, but as a team we made it through all of them.  Even after Direct was sold, we kept in touch, if not daily, definitely weekly.  He was my biggest cheerleader whether it was my card making, exercising or journeying through life!

Rest In Peace John, you will forever be missed.

Over the years, I've come to count both John and Margie as some of the most special people I've known.  I started in the insurance industry back in 1994 fresh out of grad school.  What I didn't know could fill a book.  It was my great privilege to have John Mullen as my first boss.  I could not have asked for a better mentor.  But more than that, John was a friend too.  John was wise, patient, and encouraging, and his belief in me had an incredibly positive impact on my career.  As time passed, we went our separate ways, but when I would reach out for counsel, John always graciously made time for a call or a visit. While I'll absolutely miss John, I take great comfort in knowing there's an eternity that he's a part of right now, and that one day I will see him again (John 11:26).

Rest in Peace, my Classic Baller buddy.
You have been my teammate and friend for more than 55 years and I will sorely miss you.
