John is survived by his children: Shelly (Robert) Keller of Decatur, IL, Scott (Rachel) Bledsoe of Buffalo, IL and Steven M.

Zion, IL; brother: Ron (Doris) Fair of Shelbyville, IL.
He was preceded in death by his parents.
Many knew our dad as the painter, we knew him as dad. A dad that loved us so much that he did without many times so that we may have what we needed and at times things we wanted. Dad loved us unselfishly, unconditionally through thick and thin, he was always there for us. We know it wasn easy for him being self-employed and raising the three of us as a single parent. When the phone didn ring dad didn work, winters as we recall were the hardest for him but dad always made a way for us. He always provided for us. We miss you dad, we love you far more than we can ever begin to express, and the memories youve left us with we will always cherish. We love you, Shelly, Scott and Steven.
