John was a hardworking man from a young age, beginning in logging at just 13 years old. Over the years, he dedicated himself to his work at Fabrication Specialties and was most recently in the process of transitioning to FreeFab Pallet Inc. More than anything, John was devoted to his family. He was often found surrounded by those he loved and was always willing to lend a helping hand. If someone needed him, he was there\u2014no matter the time of day or night.<\/span>John passed away in one of his favorite places, Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. He cherished time spent in the mountains, especially with Cheryl, where they could often be found sitting together by the fountains at The Island. Since her passing, he had longed for their reunion, and it brings comfort to know that he was reunited with her again in a place they both loved so dearly.<\/span><\/p>\n
