John was the son of Haskell and Hazel McCullough Coker.
For 32 years, he worked with the South Carolina Department of National Resources in the Non-game and Endangered Species Division. Working closely with Marine Biologists, he played an essential role in the rescue and recovery efforts of Bald Eagles and Sea Turtles. He was influential in seeing many of these species have a change in their conservation status of being removed from the Endangered Species List or changed in the level of threat they were currently positioned. Many of these programs which John participated in crafting went on to be adopted by other states. In his efforts for research and recovery, he monitored two hundred fifty-three Bald Eagle Nests and also had two thousand seven hundred fifty-two miles of night time monitoring of alligators.
John was a member of The Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, Walterboro Lodge No. 1988, where he held membership for the past sixteen years.
