He served with the U.S. Army in Germany in the mid 1960s. John had a passion for music and played with a number of bands in the Iowa City area in the 70s. During much of his life John worked as a carpenter and lived in California before moving back to Iowa City to care for his parents in their later years. For the past 10 years John lived in Clearwater Florida so he could be near his daughter Yolanda and her children.

Sisters: Amelia Fisher of Elburn IL, Ruth McCullough of Atlanta GA. Brothers: Mike of St Louis MO, Matt of Bakersfield CA, and Bill of Las Vegas NV.
