John was born and raised in Mt. Oliver on the South Side.
"I married into the dynasty 15 years ago and root for the team 365 days of the year whether we are having a good season or not. We live in VA beach ( was really sad I didn't get to see Big Ben when he was here, lol). My husband was in the Navy for twenty years, and is now retired, and a civilian with the government. My daughter was born into it also. She wears her Steelers/Penguins gear at least once a week! I am an admin for the 'Steel Blood of Hampton Roads' page on Facebook and we just went over 1,000 members just by word of mouth. We love the Steelers here in the 757, the fan base is Steelers, not the dead skins! We have rally's and get together and watch games whether it be Steelers, Penguins or Pirates!! I love my Steelers and I love Big Ben!! Woohoo! Take care & Merry Christmas!" -- Rochelle Kenney
