    John was my step father but in reality my "real Dad". He was a wonderful father and husband to my mother Mary Reiter Pomphrey. John's passions were first his family, and then Opera.

John was also a wonderful son to his parents Thomas Sr and Nellie Pomphrey. John was also a very devout Catholic and had true faith in God. He loved a good game of golf and always could debate any subject stauch in his beliefs and pretty much was "always right".
