John was born and raised in Philadelphia. He served in the US Marine Corps from 1965 to 1967.

John spent the rest of his free time driving his grandchildren around. He was very energetic, happy and nice. John's easygoing and unassuming personality and his kindness to others will never be forgotten by his many friends, family and people who knew him.
