John Meadows Obituary

Meadows, John A.
1972 - 2021
John A. Meadows, 49, of Pickerington, Ohio, died unexpectedly, August 8, 2021, peacefully in his home. Born April 11, 1972, in Washington Courthouse, Ohio and there he attended Washington High School graduating in 1990. He then earned his Bachelor of Arts in Health and Fitness from Capital University.
John experienced much success in his time on earth. This can be attributed to his humble approach to life but ultimately his devotion to his Catholic Faith which permeated his decision making and way of living. Whether it be within the realm of bodybuilding competitions, training others, his entrepreneurial endeavors, coaching football or fatherhood. His greatest achievement was simply just being "Dad" to his twin boys, Jonathan and Alexander. He sadly leaves behind the one who was always in his corner, his wife, Mary (Quitter). John's brotherly love will also be missed by his dear sister, Christina Dobbins. He is bereaved also by Aunts Patty Trenner and Lynn Harperee and cousin, Kyle Trenner. He was preceded in death by his mom Linda Dobbins, beloved grandmother that raised him, Carolyn Meadows, and great-grandmother Dorothy Smith. John will be remembered for how he pushed us to be a better version of ourselves. He was a generous, trusting and loving man set apart from the rest and he truly leaves behind a legacy. Visitation will be from 4-7pm Friday at DWAYNE R. SPENCE FUNERAL HOME, 550 Hill Rd. N., Pickerington and a Funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10:30am at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish, 600 Hill Rd N., Pickerington. Interment will immediately follow at Holy Cross Cemetery, Etna. Online condolences can be made at www.spencefuneralhome.com.
