John loved all sports, fishing, hunting and camping. Often you would see him at his grandchildren and great grandchildren's games. If they didn't have a game, then he would find one to watch. He loved spending time with his family, taking his grandchildren camping in the RV and traveling. He also loved gardening and sharing his bounty with friends and family. He spent lots of time in his shop building cabinets or anything his wife or girls would ask him to build.
John is survived by his wife, Christine and daughters Lucretia, Tonya and Cindy and their spouses Jack, Dino and Brian. Brothers Robert, Horace, Roger, Bruce and sisters Doris and Venita as well as 9 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren.
