He aspired to become a medical doctor and most recently worked at Blue Sky as a delivery driver. John attended Grace Church in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. He was a very social and outgoing person. His favorite thing to do was hang out with his friends. He enjoyed movies, all kinds of music and eating out; Rio Verde in Tulsa was one of his favorite restaurants. He was an excellent marksman, liked guns and the outdoors. John loved science, and buying and restoring old Cadillacs. He had a love for knowledge and could carry on a conversation about basically any subject. He always welcomed an intellectual challenge. There was nothing John liked better than an interesting conversation with a good friend. John will be remembered for his kindness, ability to make everyone feel welcome and how he cared for other people. John was an amazing son, brother and friend. He will be missed but not forgotten.
