He was an active member in his community, serving as an elder at his church, holding various positions in Little League, and playing an integral role in starting the Bantam Basketball program. John was inducted into the Adams-Friendship Athletic Hall of Fame in October 2008.

Dear Jackie and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I think I had to read this twice to be sure of what I was reading. There certainly is a lot of classmates from the class of 1960 causing a ruckus up in Heaven. I will be out of town on the 27th but will keep all of you in my prayers and thoughts. May the Great Spirit above, along with our Heavenly Father, hold you ever so tightly and give you comfort. You have my deepest Sympathy. With Love and Friendship………..Kay
