John See Obituary

John Robert See, 63, died at his home in Washington, DC on July 18, 2025.

John could unleash the power of both brain hemispheres - he was a published author and poet, an accomplished cellist, an avid tennis player, a voracious reader, a Yankees fan, and also loved to explore number theory.

He is survived by his mother, Patricia, Patty; his wife of 23 years; three sons, Becket, Nicholas, and Emerson, and his extended family.

A celebration of his life will be held July 26 at Cleveland Park Congregational Church at 11 a.m. Donations can be made for his children's college fund.

Taught John in 8th grade at North Side in Elkhart. He was a stellar student, and I am not at all surprised that he was such a Renaissance man. May he rest in peace.
