John served as a combat veteran in the Korean War. He was born in Olyphant, PA where he lived most of his life along with his living siblings, Ann, Lorraine and Joe who still reside there. For 20 years John was employed by the Greyhound Corp. He was a hard working man and a "Jack of all trades". John's extra time was spent hunting, fishing, raising rabbits, painting cars and building balsa wood airplanes.

He leaves his beloved wife of 65 years, Florence; seven children, Teresa, Marilyn, Michael, Diane, Paul, John Jr. and Richard; 15 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. John had a mischievous smile and a great sense of humor. We will always miss his wit and charm.
