He was an active pilot and flew various airplanes safely for nearly 45 years including his Aero Commander and Republic Sea Bee. His heart and soul was in the Adirondacks where he spent many summer nights with his family at Fern Lake with fresh Guiness on tap. For those who knew him, he had a soft and generous heart within a tough outer shell.
John is survived by Wilma (Burnett) and his six children, Laura, Nathan, Adam, Andrew, Mary, and Kyle; and seven grand children, Sarah, Joshua, Grace, Annabel, Aliana, Lucas, and Margareta. John was very active in all of their lives and will be missed immensely.
A viewing will be held at the Ross funeral home in Akron, NY on Friday April 26 from 7-9pm and Saturday April 27th from 10-11am. A service will be held at St. Theresa's in Akron at 11:30am, Saturday April 27th.
