“John has been a ‘known professional quantity’ in the municipal world for many years,” said Village Manager Napoleon Haney. “John is a rarity in that, although he had an extensive tenure with Homewood, he was able to consistently remain passionate, creative and highly effective. We’re going to miss John’s tenacity to accomplish big things, his humor and calm demeanor. He’s a real Homewood hero.
