John graduated from Conroe High School in 1966 and went on to earn his degree from Austin College in Sherman, Texas, in 1970. He lived life to the fullest, embracing every opportunity for excitement and adventure. Whether it was boating, shooting, hunting, fishing, or riding his motorcycle, John approached every endeavor with enthusiasm and a zest for life. John’s love for all things artillery was well-known, and he took great pride in building an impressive collection. His passion for motorcycles led him on legendary tours across the country, often accompanied by equally legendary tales of mishaps and triumphs.
A lifelong member of the Methodist church, John’s faith was a constant in his life, providing a strong foundation for his many pursuits.
