If you think you heard the sweet chords of an old hymn drifting up into the blue sky along about sunset on August 26, 2016, it was John Anderson Chamblin, Jr. entering eternal life on the wings of angels and, in his soft voice singing, “I Bowed On My Knees and Cried Holy.”
John’s loving partner, Janice Keeling, is certain she can hear him leading a heavenly choir, tuning a guitar and telling humorous stories. The songs he wrote will live forever and we’ll hear him sing them again one day.
John’s spirit is carried on by his four children: Jimmy (Jan) Chamblin, Debbie (Joe) Starling, Jerry Chamblin, Sandra (Dale) Kinard and the mother of his children Mary Lily Chamblin. His grandchildren: Joshua, Jordan, Hannah, Lauri, Isaac, Lesley, Heather, Alex, Rebekah, and Ryan. Great grandchildren: Jesse, Lexi, Atlas and Nora. John was predeceased by his parents John Anderson and Erma Terry Chamblin, his first born son John Anderson Chamblin, III and John’s brother Carl Edwin Chamblin.
John left his old Gibson guitar sitting quietly in a corner, sending a message to his siblings Iris, Kay, Ron, Sue and Beth to sing and live with joy and happiness knowing that they would see him again one day.
John, age 83, was born in Gainesville, Florida, and after serving his country in the U. S. Navy, decided the green pastures of Madison County was where he wanted to live and raise his family. During the next fifty-four years, he founded Pinetta Cabinets and Realwood Inc. where he was a vital part of its operation until he retired in 2012. Memorial services will be held at Beggs Funeral Home, 235 NW Orange Street, Madison, Florida, on Saturday, September 10, 2016, at 11:00 a.m. followed by a time of fellowship at the Hanson United Methodist Church, 290 NE Daisy Street, Madison, Florida 32340. In lieu of flowers the family is requesting that donations be made to the North Florida Community College Foundation.
