Johnny - the hearty laugh, the teasing grin with a twinkle in his eye, always wanting the best for his family and fully enjoying his many friends. Always the proud father and grandfather .... and my fun brother-in-law.... That's how I remember him. Taking me fishing & shooting gophers on the farm..... (I always wanted to count the close shots as hits because I thought I scared them enough to probably never come back but he said that's not the way they do things in Milk River!) Fond memories... love and condolences to all the Mazutinec family. Gil

Hi Bev, John, Teresa, and Rita, Uncle John was one of my favorites. His infectious laugh, kindness, and genuine interest when we crossed paths made for a fun visit. One of my last visits with your mom and dad was when I drove Steve down to Milk River to visit with them in their new seniors home. We laughed and reminisced and had a really good time. Time takes no favorites as we all know. I believe John is having a grand reunion with all of his family and friends and is dazzling them with his stories, only like he can. I also believe that all of us will see our departed loved ones again. Thinking about all of you in this tough time. Love to all of you.

Darren Mazutinec, July 26, 2020

Bev and Families - Deepest Sympathy John was a kind and gentle soul ,he will be missed.
