John Melgaard Sr. Obituary
This beautiful man passed away too soon, but he lived a beautiful life. His plan was to retire and spend his time gardening and spoiling the grandchildren he loved so much.
John was a Physician Assistant in Coeur d'Alene and loved by all his patients as evidenced by the hundreds of cards he received after his stroke.
He is dearly missed, but our memories and his legacy will remain with those left behind, his wife Cindy, children John Jr., Emily and stepson Justin. And of course, his grandchildren; Lillian, Randall, Jonah, Alexandria, Bennie and little Anna whom he got to hold just once.
John's memorial service is:
Friday, March 21 at 1:00 at the Altar Church.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
1133 N 4th Street, Coeur d'Alene, ID 83814
