Greece, NY – Passed away January 22, 2023. John is predeceased by his parents John C & Alice (Flanagan) McCarthy.

John was the ultimate car guy. Cars were his job, his hobby, his lifelong interest. His favorite TV show was “Jay Leno’s Garage.” His vast knowledge of the automobile, its performance and history would prompt people to say, “Who knows that stuff?” John did.
