John was raised in Milwaukee and where he met Judith. John served in the United States Army. He retired as a Milwaukee Deputy Sheriff. He was very driven and meticulous. Spending countless hours in the garage there was nothing he would not paint and perfect. He devoted much of his time and energy into photography and collecting stamps. He was an enthusiast of the EAA. Always enjoyed being outdoors landscaping. John took many trips with his family back to Milwaukee over the years reminiscing at the lakefront or eating at Real Chili. Papa John also known as Frankito had an infectious laugh and comical sense of humor. John was always composed, confident and clever. Being naturally social and fun-loving everyone was drawn to him. Your life was a blessing, your memory a treasure, you are loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.
