The family moved to Grove when he was nine months old, where he grew up and graduated from Grove High School with the class of 2013.

He was a wrestler from 1st grade all the way through 12th grade. He also participated in track and pole vaulting, and other outdoor sports, all of which he excelled in. John was a well-liked young man with a large number of friends from all walks of life who miss him tremendously. He was an outdoorsman who loved fishing, motorcycling, and kayaking among many, many other activities. His presence was a blessing to all who knew him and he ‘lit up the room’ when he entered. He was considered the ‘glue’ that held the family together with his charm and outgoing personality. John made himself available to assist his family and friends in any need they might have and was in general a very happy and caring person with always a smile for anyone he met. To know him was to love him. John was a Christian and formerly attended Cornerstone Church in Grove. John was preceded in death by his grandparents.

A Celebration of Life for John will be held at 5pm on Thursday, February 16, 2023 at Nichols-Stephens Chapel. The family has requested that donations be made to his daughter Paisley to assist with her continued care and may be left at Nichols-Stephens Funeral Service or directly to the family.
