I was a fan of the Polonia brother's work and I even exchanged e-mails with John on a couple of occasions. I realized that I drive by Wellsboro on my way home from college. I was wondering if you knew where his grave was so I could leave some flowers and pay my respect. I am very saddened to hear this news.

R.I.P. to a fallen guerrilla.

I have been friends with Mark and John for a long time. John was a funny and caring man. One of the good guys that we really can't afford to lose. Fortunately we can still live a bit with him, in his many movies. His take on the camera man in "Among Us" has and will always be a movie highlight for me. John we miss you. Well said Joe.

Well said, Joe. I'm better at speaking than writing and I can't imagine saying this any better. Thanks for speaking at his service. It was nice to hear others' stories of John. He was good friend to me and this was was far, far too soon. I’m just now getting to the point where I can go through all of these tributes to John on the web without automatically falling apart.

It makes his death personal even for humble fans such as myself. Thanks for a lovely and moving tribute. :/ Cindy Strangely enough, because of the (financially necessary, perhaps) intimacy of the Polonias’ films, and their wonderful ‘making of’ featurettes and directors’ commentary, even those of us who never met them know that John had an infectious laugh.

It's terrible when someone bright and talented dies suddenly like that...I'm sorry this had to happen. That was a very moving article Joe. Where can I find some of Mark and John's work?

Saurians will always be one of my all time favorite films. For my 30th birthday, I gathered a group of friends over for a night of Feeders 1 and 2. This really makes me sad. Nicely said Joe.
