John Lakari Obituary
With great sadness we announce the passing of John Lakari, born in Palmer, MI. John lived with his beloved life partner, Paula Wynnyckyj, in Albuquerque since 2003. During his life, John contributed to several national and international business interests. He was a veteran and will be remembered for his dry wit, kindness and friendly smile. A daily walk with canine Greta and meals out with friends were staples in his retirement. A celebration of John's life will be held at a later time.
