No one who met John will forget his incredible passion for life. He was a man of many words and many talents, and it was his pride and joy to share everything with the people he called family or friend. He could never meet a stranger. Whether over a billiards table, in a karaoke bar, at a fishing hole, watching a UCF college football game or a NASCAR race he could find someone to befriend and share stories with.

John had a Bachelor of Science – Computer Animation degree from Full Sail University in Florida. John was creative and loved his career in graphic design, as well as designing video games in his free time. John was a veteran of the Navy and was a proud American man. John was also an amazing singer. His amazing voice would be requested by many, and he loved singing, especially with his wife.

Above everything else John loved his family. He was so proud of what life had given him and would tell anyone who would listen how incredibly grateful he was for each one of his loved ones. His love for his wife, Cyndi, was incredible. They were best friends from the moment they met and not one person ever doubted they were soulmates. He was a hero for all three of his children. He loved cheering all of them on with as much passion as he could. John was an amazing “papa” to his grandchildren. He loved them with an incredible amount of joy.

John will be incredibly missed by all who were blessed to meet him.
