You couldn't go to the K without seeing JJ every day. Teaching. Coaching, and giving life lessons to the youth of Newark. I believe he earned this. Its good for the city.

This young man gave unselfishly throughout his entire life. It is only fitting that the rec center, where he spent the better part of his days, honor him by changing the name.

JJ was one of my three brothers and with all the good he has done with the Next Level kids nothing would make me happier then to see my brothers mark on newark.
