John Karnofsky Obituary
He is survived by his two daughters, Samantha Karnofsky & Elizabeth OConnor (husband Chris OConnor), his sister Joni Karnofsky (husband Steve Hartman), his two grandchildren Nickolis Franklin Elmer Lillman & Christopher OConnor, and his three nieces and Crystal Karnofsky, Jennifer Tomtschik (husband Alex Tomtschik), Melissa Karnofsky and one nephew Andy Karnofsky (wife Laura Karnofsky). He is preceded in death by his father and mother Elmer & Eileen Karnofsky and his brother Jim Karnofsky.
John's contagious personality has made him lifelong friends wherever he went. He enjoyed cooking, fishing, camping and fixing anything he could get his hands on. His love of nature kept him outside with every available opportunity. As he fishes on heaven's sky-blue waters, he will be deeply missed here on earth.
John's wishes were to be cremated with no services. Online condolences may be expressed to the family by visiting www.lakeshorefamilyfuneralhomes.com
The Lakeshore Family Funeral Homes, Reinbold & Pfeffer Family Funeral Home Manitowoc location is assisting the family with arrangements.
