In addition to his wife, Bonnie, he is survived by his five daughters, Teresa (John Rabuck) Loomis of Hokah, Kay (Doug) Twite of Houston, Barbara (Tim Kappauf) Twite of Hokah, Nancy (Greg Schultz) Loomis of Caledonia, and Sarah (Tony) Wiste of Sheldon, Minn.; his three sons, Russell (Sara) Loomis of Caledonia, Dale Loomis of Chatfield, and Tim Loomis of Caledonia; 25 grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; and one brother, Richard (Muriel) Loomis of Caledonia.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by two sons, Robert and Michael; one granddaughter Anna; four brothers and three sisters.
Visitation and celebration of John's life was Dec. 22 at Schumacher-Kish Funeral Home of La Crescent. A private family burial will take place at a later date.
