Paul Stadler
John was a graduate of Gannon College in Erie, PA. he was a member of the Pershing Rifles national honor society, fraternity and drill teams. He was affectionately know as BJ , Big John. He was smart, funny, a friend and brother. Always open to having fun. There are so many funny stories of BJ. At one of ur drill meets we couldn't find a pair of uniform pants for him because of his size. So the Bros taped him up with white medical tape to keep his pants up. During our performance at this drill meet his pants started to fall down. We exited the floor without them falling all the way down , but it was noticeable. People watching us perform were heard to say " look at that guy, his pants are falling down." I am so sorry for his loss. My sincere condolences to family and friends. I have posted this after just having found out of his passing. Paul J. Stadler Jr., DDS, Gannon '77.
