John is survived by his beloved wife, Amy Rebecca (Bridges) Waters and his two sons; Samuel Aidan (14 years of age) and Seth Alan (12 years of age), numerous family, and nieces and nephews.
As an only child John’s formative years were spent in the home of his mother Sandra and grand mother in Los Angeles, and later in Morro Bay, where he graduated from Morro Bay High School. John later graduated from the College of Oceaneering in Wilmington, California, with a degree in Commercial Diving and Inspection.
John spent the past seven years with his family in Delano, MN. John loved to make people laugh. He was generous with his time and money, enjoyed playing X-Box with his sons, and he loved his country. He participated whenever possible at Highlands Church, last teaching the kindergarten aged children in Sunday School. We will remember his boisterous laugh and his easy going personality. He was devoted to God, his wife, and family.
A celebration of John’s life will be held at The Highlands Church, on Saturday, July 16th, at 10:30 am with a time of visiting beginning at 9:30 am.
