John J. Tessier Memorial Bench
Donation protected
On June 23rd, 2020, we unexpectedly lost a great boss, friend, drinking buddy, ally, colleague, brother, uncle, family member, human being; John Tessier.
John managed to have a special relationship with every person he met and his generosity was felt by everyone who knew him. He was always there for us when we needed him and did it all while cracking jokes in his New England accent. That combination of humor and heartfelt sincerity was what made him so uniquely John and why he will be so greatly missed.
In John's honor and with the blessing of his family, we're collecting donations for a memorial bench in Hollywood, CA.
The plaque on the bench will read:
In Memory of John J. Tessier
Son, Brother and Friend
A Toast!
Though we couldn't see him off, we will all be able to participate in a final 'Toast!' in his honor.
Please feel free to share any memories or stories in your comments on this GoFundMe page.
NOTE: Any additional proceeds surpassing fundraising amount will go for additional maintenance of the bench after 10 yrs
