He was a construction superintendent in Seaside and Rosemary Beach, FL, for over 20 years, and obtained his State of Florida Contractors license in 2006. John was a very kind, compassionate man, who went out of his way to help others in need, he would give you the shirt off his back, if you needed it. He loved animals, riding his motorcycle, vehicle restoration, the outdoors and spending time with the ones he loved.
