John grew up the youngest of 4 boys. After he married the love of his life, Carol, they lived in California for a while. They enjoyed going to Disney and hanging out with friends. John was good at pitching horseshoes. He took 2nd place at a national tournament in Ohio and even pitched against Western movie stars such as Gene Autry. John was a dedicated and loving father and husband. When his boys were young he could often be found playing baseball and football with them and the neighborhood kids. He worked hard to provide for his family. He even went back to school later in life to further his management career in the grocery business.
