John SCHWARTZOTT Obituary
(1942-2021) - John died in the loving company of his family on January 21, 2021. He was born in Buffalo, New York to Dorothy and Murrel. He is survived by his wife, Eleanor; his sister Margaret Armbruster; his children Jennifer Schwartzott (Marvin Muller); Colleen Michalski; Kathy (Tom) Beres; Chris (Gayle) Holmes; PT (Kim) Holmes; and Andy (Laura) Holmes; and grandchildren Mary and Maxwell Muller; Natalie (Allan) Brass and Emily (Dave) Smits; Jerry (Megan) Beres, Andrea (David) Finn, and Todd Beres; Christopher (Carisa) Holmes and Jennifer (Shawn) Smith; David and Sammy Holmes; Megan (CJ) Sawyer, Matthew and Mallory Holmes; several nieces and nephews; many great-grandchildren; and countless friends. He was predeceased by his parents; sister, Mary Jane Hayhurst; and brother, Paul Schwartzott. John had a zest for life, and left a lasting impression on everyone he met. As a young man, he served in the United States Army, and then embarked on a lifelong career in sales. John moved to Georgia, in 1985, but retained his love for Weber's mustard, Sahlen's hot dogs, and the Buffalo Bills. A Memorial Service will take place in Buffalo at a future date to be determined. In lieu of flowers, Ellie asks that donations be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital and the children ask that donations be made to Ellie/their mom.
