John Maske Obituary
John was a truck driver and heavy equipment operator for various companies in Southern Wisconsin. He eventually retired after working 25 years for the City of Janesville. John enjoyed woodworking and repairing various machines. But his passion was his grandchildren and family. He often traveled with his family, including a trip to Myrtle Beach South Carolina with the grandkids and trips each year to the apple orchard to celebrate his wedding anniversary. He was famous for taking his grandkids for rides on his scooter, including trips to Kwik Trip for shakes and treats.
John is survived by his wife of 54 years, Ramona; his children: Chad Maske, Mandi (Apolonio) Zarate, and Adam Maske; his granddaughters: Adriana Zarate and McKenzie Zarate. He is also survived by his sisters: Josephine Sbarounis and Janice Brown; and his brother, Brad (Gwen) Maske.
He is preceded by his son, Jason Maske; his grandson, Max Maske; his brother in law, John Sbarounis and his parents.
