John was preceded in death by his first wife Audrey Gay Flynn in 1983. Born in Encinitas, California in 1930, his family moved to Phoenix in 1932 where his father was involved in the cattle business. John began school at Kenilworth and Madison Elementary schools and attended North Phoenix High School and New Mexico Military Institute. John joined his father as foreman of the SP Ranch in Northern Arizona. He then attended the University of Arizona earning a Mechanical Engineering Degree in 1957. His career led the family to live in Nebraska, Wyoming, Phoenix, California, Bangkok, Thailand and Maryland. In 1972, he returned to Tucson and opened and directed his own engineering firm until his death. Everyone who knew him was impacted by his adventurous spirit, his loyalty to friends and his commitment to his family. He is greatly loved and missed by us all.
