John, a Harding HS graduate and a WWII army infantryman in the Pacific, worked at 3M, GE, NSP and Bethesda H. He moonlighted as a TV repairman. Well known for his mechanical and electrical skills, he could build and fix just about anything. John said raising his kids was his greatest accomplishment. He enjoyed family weekends at their lake cabin which included cement projects, grilling burgers and popcorn movie nights. Later in life, John loved family dinners, his tools and workshop, science magazines and caring for his pets. The family would like to thank New Harmony Care Center for the excellent care that John received in his final years. Date for private gathering TBD.
