John was a Baptist by faith, he was a delivery driver for Domino's Pizza. John was an avid sports fan; he had a favorite team in each sport. He supported the Kentucky Wildcats basketball team, Cincinnati Reds baseball team, Bengals football team, and the Mavericks NBA team. He was a huge wrestling fan. He enjoyed spending his time fishing at his favorite pay lakes. John loved animals, his dogs Molly and Rosie were his loyal companions. John delighted in making others smile and laugh, the more he joked and picked on someone, the more he loved them.
