John Radosevich Obituary
September 20, 1948 - November 22, 2024
John Stephen Radosevich blessed parents Julianne (Racki) Radosevich and John Jack Radosevich to Roman Catholic faith. He attended Gallup public schools and Northern Arizona University for one semester before the US Army draft. He served in Vietnam, his expertise in avionics, repairing helicopters. After his tour, he returned to Gallup, remodeling homes and met wife Linda Wilson, and married 8-30-75. They moved to Flagstaff, where John worked for Ralston Purina 26 years. John and his father built Linda and John's first home in Cosnino. John and Linda had one daughter, Christy, and moved to Flagstaff in 1978. In semi-retirement, John worked in realty, then in garage-door hanging.
Avid sportsman, always smiling and loving to laugh, John's neighbors knew him as "block watchman."
John Radosevich perished of a heart attack following a fall, declared dead 11-22-2024. He is survived by and will be greatly missed by wife, Linda in Flagstaff, daughter Christy Radosevich-Jacobs and son-in-law Arno Jacobs in Netherlands, brother Jeff and sister Jeanne in Washington state.

Every time we saw John, he had a smile on his face, was quick to laugh and share something good . His love for the outdoors and his love for his family were obvious to all who knew him. So very sorry to hear of his passing. May the Lord comfort you & hold you close.
