PITTSFIELD – John Weinhold, 62, of Pittsfield, passed away at home early Thursday morning, Jan. 23, 2014, following a brief illness.

John was born in Hampton March 20, 1951, the son of Charles A. and Elizabeth (Johnson) Weinhold. He graduated from Winnacunnet High School and attended Plymouth State College. John began his career as an electrician with Rockingham Electric. Later he became a manager with Ralph Pill where he stayed for over 25 years before moving into sales with Consolidated Electrical Distributors. It was at CED where he spent the last three years.

John loved to be outdoors and reveled in time spent mowing the lawn, caring for his home and tending to his vast vegetable gardens. Described as a kind, gentle, compassionate man, John found the greatest joy in time with family; from large gatherings to simple one-on-one chats, he cherished each and every moment with his loved ones.

John is survived by the love of his life, best friend and wife of 30 years, Pam Weinhold; brothers Bill, Chuck, Bob and Peter Weinhold; and numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
