Jon Shibles Obituary
Zephyrhills, FL — Jon Craig Shibles passed away peacefully on September 4, 2021 at the age of 76 after a courageous battle with cancer surrounded by family.
He was born in Concord, NH to Kennedy R. and Laura Shibles. He graduated Penacook High School-Class of 1963 and attended New England College. Craig is survived by his loving wife, Marti, of 55 years. Together they raised three beautiful children who in time added our beloved grandchildren and three adorable great granddaughters. Craig also leaves his brother Kennedy and wife Margaret Shibles, and his many nieces and nephews.
He owned and operated Mattressmaker in Chichester for 18 years. Prior to that he ran a JT's General Store route in NH.
In his free time Craig enjoyed his family to the max. Especially teaching the little ones to garden, swim, fish and boat. He loved to fly fish in the summer and golf in the winter.
Per Craig's wishes he was cremated. There will be no service at this time.

Back in the early 1990's we met when he was selling products door to door. He never forgot my family and when we ran into each through the years he always stopped to chat. A very nice man. May he rest in eternal peace and his love always surround you.
