Dear Family and Friends,

Our brother, John, has been called home. He was greeted by his father Gilbert, father-

in-law Gil, sister Michele, grandparents, Juan, Annie, Uncle Jimmy and nephew Aaron.

He was survived by his loving wife of forty-two years Kathy, Mother Maxine, sister Nikki,

son Karl and fiancée Amanda, son Westin and wife Melody, grandchildren Jovanni and

Aria, brothers and sisters-in-law and many nieces and nephews.

He’ll also be remembered by many coworkers and lifelong friends. In his earlier years,

he was a dune buggy enthusiast with his father and most recently was enjoying

woodworking. He also enjoyed riding motorcycles every chance he got. It is bittersweet

that he was peaceful and free right before his untimely death. We are grateful that we

had good times and bad and will forever miss him. He suffered from COPD and other

health issues that took their toll.

Family is planning a celebration of life at a later date.

“Lord make me an instrument of Thy peace.

Where there is hatred let me sow love.

Where there is injury, pardon.

Where there is doubt, faith.

Where there is despair, hope.

Where there is darkness, light.

Where there is sadness, joy.”
