July 5, 2019

Jason Menniti, who worked at John's Auto Repair alongside his father, was an ‘honest and knowledgeable’ mechanic and made customers feel comfortable.

July 5, 2019—Arrangements have been scheduled for 46-year-old mechanic, Jason Menniti, after being killed in a lift accident early this week, reports the Daily Voice.

Authorities said the Chevy was on a lift when it fell onto 46-year-old Jason Menniti of Pompton Plains, N.J. Menniti, whose father owns the business, was later pronounced dead at Hackensack University Medical Center, responders said.

Menniti, who worked at John's Auto Repair alongside his father, made customers feel comfortable.

"As a woman sometimes it’s tough to go to a mechanic and not feel like you're getting the run-around," one Yelper wrote, "but not the case here."

"Good mechanics are hard to come by these days," another said. "John and Jason provide excellent service at great prices."

Visitation is scheduled from 4 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, July 10 at Santangelo Funeral Home in Lodi, N.J.
