He attended Central High School in Evansville, IN and went on to work as a butcher for Swift Meat Packing.  After working for Swift, John worked as a welder for 30yrs for Arkla/Dometic. He enjoyed working on cars and would even fix them up to be able to teach his children and grandchildren to drive. John never met a stranger and would do anything for anyone. Some would say being with John in public felt like being with a celebrity because everyone knew him everywhere he went. John enjoyed trail riding and boarding horses. He especially loved his trusty horse Sparky. The outdoors called to John. He enjoyed fly fishing with his beautiful wife Jean as they traveled the Ozarks in the RV.
