John, also known to his family and friends as: Bud, Buddy, Dad, Daddy, G-Pa, and Pap Pap Bud, filled the world with his wisdom wit, kindness, love, and hard work.
Family was the most important thing to him. He loved his blue Harley Davidson motorcycle, but when the time came he traded it in for a furnace. He spread warmth in every way.
He was fascinated by astronomy; his favorite author being Carl Sagan shows he wanted to know how the universe works. Knowing that, he could fix it, whether it was his old Ford F-150 pickup, a leaky pipe, or a broken bicycle. He had a soft spot for stray animals and was the world’s number one cat-sitter
Kellogg’s is going to have to shut down one of their Pop-Tart factories.
We all will miss him so much. And he will always be here, with us, in our hearts and in all the ways he made the world better.
