He cherished every moment spent with them and loved watching each one reach new milestones. He was full of insightful wisdom and never missed an opportunity to share his guidance and support with them. John moved to Lake Havasu City in 1978 and started a successful landscaping business building rock walls and planting trees, leaving his mark all over town. He was passionate about refereeing soccer, coaching soccer, track & field, and cross-country. In later years he was seen as an official at the track and cross country meets. He loved the youth of the community and enjoyed being involved in these various programs. A Celebration of Life will take place at a later date.
