The tears have fallen since John left us on April 6th 2022. We all know how much he loved his family and friends so now is the time to celebrate the life he led and how he touched us all. We would love for you to come and join us in celebrating John’s life. The celebration will be June 18th 2022, from 2pm to 4pm at Portsmouth Moose Family Center # 898, N. George Washing Hwy., Chesapeake, VA 23323. No Tears please, only happy memories and companionship of friends and family. We do however, ask you to bring 3 things to the memorial: your happiness, your memories and any pictures you have of John to share! All who knew him knew how he could light up a room with his laughter and not even know it. He would be thrilled to know that everybody was meeting up one last time to talk about him! Appetizers, refreshments and hugs will be provided. Please RSVP to 757-485-2045 and leave a message of your response and how many in your party. Please dress casual. Please share your condolences with the family at www.FamilyChoiceFunerals.com

So very sorry for your loss, I loved me some SKI daddy. He was one my favorite my Supvs in SHOP 17. A man’s man. GOD BLESS YOU SKI, RIP My friend.
Sending hugs and love to Jannie and family. I was so sorry to hear of his passing. He and Jannie were our first friends when Roy and I got married. He was a great guy.
John was a good friend and a faithful, dependable fellow employee at SUPSHIPNN. Sorry for your loss.
May peace and comfort surround all of John’s family and friends in the days to come. May you feel God’s loving arms around you, holding you close. May all of your precious memories become treasures you hold in your heart to see you through as you remember your loved one/friend.
As John’s neighbors we cherished his friendship and our many over-the-fence conversations. We appreciated his help and wisdom and ability to oversee/supervise any project we started and got too deep into without “just the right tool.”
John was always willing to help out however and whenever needed.
May the view from the mountain top be all you ever hoped it would be…until we meet again!
James &Katrina (and family)
*Jannie, as always, we are just a few steps away*
Supper guy, worked with John in Shop 17 ai NNSY, May he R.I.P. my ole friend.
John was a wonderful neighbor. Always had a friendly wave for all passerbys. Will be greatly missed
Always enjoyed working with John when I was in the QA Department. We all referred to him as “Z” man!! Rest in Peace “Z” man!!
Dear Janie and family, I am truly sorry for your loss. John Z was a great man and friend of mine. We share the same birth year and month. I will never forget that voice and infectious laugh. We met when he first came to QA. @ SUPSHIPNN. We shared our family stories with one another. I was assigned to get him familiar with Quality Assurance. He was truly a hard working man and always had his family on his mind. You truly have my deepest condolences. May God give you comfort for such a time as this.
Always,
Joan C. Austin
