Retirement allowed John to fully embrace his passions. He obtained his private pilot license and enjoyed flying along the East Coast of the United States. Even in retirement, John's dedication to service remained unwavering. He generously offered his skills and time to the community. John was an active member of his church, faithfully serving as an usher every Sunday. In his condo community, on Singer Island, Florida, where he resided for over 20 years, John was a pillar of support, always ready to lend a helping hand to his neighbors.

John had a sharp sense of humor and a witty personality that endeared him to many. His vibrant presence lit up any room, and his love for the ocean was evident as he gazed out from the 18th floor of his condo, cherishing the breathtaking view.
