John lived in Downey all his life. He went to St. Raymond’s Catholic school. There he served as an Alter Boy for 4 years. He then went on to Downey High school, graduating with the class of 1985. After graduation he started working with his father at Bob’s Welding. Then he went into his own Construction business. John worked 5 days a week at his regular job and then on weekends he was always helping friends and family. If you needed something done John knew how to do it, and he was always willing to help he could never say no to anybody in need.

He spent the last 2 years battling Cancer and living life to the fullest. City of Hope was amazing helping John through weekly chemotherapy treatments. He tried everything to beat this horrific disease, for a second time but unfortunately, he lost his battle.

John was able to take quite a few adventures in the last two years while he was undergoing treatment. In the summer of 2022, he was able to visit the island of Kauai with family. Touring the Napali coast, Waimea falls, and all the beautiful waterfalls and beaches the island had to offer. He also enjoyed trips to San Diego and Vegas.
