John Mika Obituary
Mika, John 'Jack'
passed away Wednesday, August 25, 2021 at the age of 81. Born September 10, 1939 in St. Louis, he was a proud Marine and avid Cardinal fan!
He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Ginny (nee Vanek). Dear father of John (Amy) Mika, Tamara (Scott) Carlton, and Jeff (Anne) Mika. Proud grandfather to Kelsey, Abby, Jack, Matt, Logan, Sophie, Emily, Cole, and friend to all. Watching his grandkids activities and spending time with family brought him much joy.
We all have many wonderful memories of Jack and he will forever be in our hearts.
