John Curcuruto joined the PA on April 15, 1968 as a Staff Assistant in the Personnel Department of the Port Authority of NY & NJ.  He is survived by his wife, Josephine Mary, a son, John Jr. and a daughter, Christine. Christine and her husband Mitch have a son, Nicholas (John's grandson) and she is expecting twins this coming July. 

John was assigned to the "Operations & Management" Divisions of the Personnel Department as a Personnel Specialist Representative, and in time showed a great understanding and aptitude for working with Field Maintenance and Field Operations Supervisors and Managers. 

In addition to being principal Personnel liaison with the FM & FS associations, John performed as a lead Personnel Specialist and was a mentor to countless staff brought in to the Human Resources Department during his 22-year tenure in Human Resources. 

In 1990, John accepted a reassignment to the Aviation Department where he helped Aviation develop Human Resource staffing plans in the FM & FS areas.  John handled personnel issues in Aviation which later on included arranging severage deals and outplacement services for staff whose positions were being abolished.  John retired in January, 1996 and will be missed by us all.
