Our Condolences go out to his families.

John Martin Kessler,
Was and still is a great man.

He is always welcoming and full of witty comments.

He has blessed me with my Beautiful wife Kathy ,shes Strong, Witty and good looking like her Dad & Mom 🙏

I know he’s in heaven playing golf with God and bragging about how great his family is.

So when we hear a voice from up above yelling “Four” we know he just took a swing-lol

Now he’s looking down on us and smiling knowing he’s raised such a great , respectable , kind , honest, good looking family.

May he rest in peace in his new life.

Love ya man.

Your Son in-law 
Mike Menendez 




2016 Chilliwack Canada, Jill Campbell’s wedding. 

2018 Puerto Nuevo. We always enjoyed the adventure and Lobster. 

John and his outgoing zest for life will be greatly missed. He was always up for fishing, crabbing and of course enjoyed eating the fruits of his labor. 

Dearest Kessler Family,
My sincere condolences for your loss. 
I will always have wonderful memories of Mr Kessler.  As the tag along kid invited to pile into  Mr Kessler’s VW van, we headed to the beach. Then, always treated to “two” scoops at 31 Flavors.  I’ve felt so lucky to be included in on so many family occasions. 
I’m so sorry I will not be able to attend this celebration of Mr Kessler’s life. 
He will always hold a special place in my heart. 
With my friendship and love,
Karen Klein Tanner 

A big birthday bash for Tommy's 50th birthday! Shown here with Dad are 5 of his kids, Tom, Pam, Kathy, Kim & Carol, and grandson Nic. 

Dad with my boys, Michael, Chris, Joey and my grandson, Oliver. We were enjoying one of the family's favorite restaurants, Filippi's. Three generations here! I should have jumped in to make it four!

Dad and one of his favorite cars. This photo was loving named "Definition of Cool" and framed by Michael Cantino, his grandson, as a gift. 

This is one of my favorite pictures of me and my Dad. He was so involved in all 6 of our lives. Always on the go and so full of life.  Ready to take us to the beach, grab a pizza or icecream, head off to a Dodger game or Del Mar. We had tons of life experiences with him. And he was involved in his grandkids lives the same. You will forever be in our hearts Dad. Life without you will never be the same.💙💖💖💖💖💙

This was taken in Corona, California, at the home where Dad grew up. Most likely a Sunday at Grandma's with the family. Shown are his 4 oldest kids, Sam, Pam, Kim, and Kathy. 

Dad loved his baseball hats and had quite a collection! He was quite a pitcher in his day. As you can see, he was always up for a selfie or two with his kids. 💙💖💖💖💖💙

Dad and his jalapenos! He even carried them in his pocket when he was on the road. Rarely a meal without them! 🔥

We had a great time at an Angels game and we all got free hats! 2017

My dad with Sam & Tommy ( weirdly tan) getting some lunch! Mid 1970’s. 
My dad told me last November,
“Nothing else matters as long as you can maintain your tan.” 
While he was sitting in his backyard getting some sun ☀️ 

My mom & dad with Sam, Pam, Kim & Kathy…Carol and Tommy weren’t born yet! Approximately 1959 or 1960❤️
