John Wendell Lackens Jr.

John was a good friend to my father, George Kresch. I will not forget his and his late wife, Barbara's kindness. Just super people. My deepest condolences to his family.

I remember back in the late 70s and early 80s during the winter when John would bring the Red Barron crew up to Northern Wisconsin. Also remember his cabin which was nice. I had the pleasure of meeting him just recently back in May of this year. It has been 40 years since I last saw him prior to May. He will be greatly missed. My Thoughts and Prayers to the Lackens Family.

John was my Dad´s father in law and grandfather to my half-siblings. He was such a kind man. When first visiting his cabin I thought he was extra cool because he had a pinball machine, and as an adult his fashion choice of bow ties brought a big smile. I can´t say I knew him well, but I knew him enough to say he will be deeply missed by those who did. May you rest in peace and enjoy catching up with your beloved.
