John Huber, 61, of Kennesaw, Georgia, entered eternal rest on March 27, 2026. Born on December 31, 1964, in Euclid, Ohio, to his parents, Virginia and Paul Huber. The baby boy of seven siblings, John was the comedian of the family with his quick-witted responses and joyful sense of humor. John lived a life filled with love, laughter, and commitment to his family, faith, and community.
John was a member of Transfiguration Catholic Church in Marietta. Raised in a Catholic home, he carried his faith throughout his life and credited God for the many blessings he received. His steadfast belief and unwavering faith guided him in all that he did.
John pursued his passion for the culinary arts by earning an Associate's Degree from The Art Institute of Atlanta. His talent in the kitchen was unmatched, and he found immense joy in preparing meals that brought people together. Whether it was a holiday feast or a casual gathering, John’s dishes were always the centerpiece of celebration. Some of his favorite meals to prepare were stuffed cabbage rolls and chicken parmesan. He also delighted family and friends with his expertly crafted Jambalaya, Lowcountry boils, and prime rib steaks—each dish made with care and precision. With his Ohio roots in mind, he would always make sure everyone had their fill of his delicious buckeyes to finish off the meal.
John’s personality was as vibrant as the meals he prepared. Known for his humor and warmth, he had an uncanny ability to light up any room he entered. He was compassionate and selfless—a man who made everyone feel valued and welcomed. A seat at John’s table was always open to anyone who needed it, often accompanied by a playful joke or two before they sat down.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 33 years, Annette Huber, and their daughter Madison (Anna) Huber. John cherished his family deeply and took pride in the life they built together. He and Annette met through his sister Marianne; their first arranged date took place at Benihana, where John waited outside while Annette was already inside. They both thought they had been stood up, and were going to passionately tell Marianne that she shouldn't quit her day job to pursue matchmaking. But from the moment they finally sat across from each other, they were smitten. The two were married on June 13, 1992, and have upheld a life filled with adventure, laughter, and an indescribable amount of love ever since.
John is preceded in death by his father, Paul Huber; his brother, David Huber; and his in-laws, Benjamin and Loray Gilbert.
A celebration of life will be held at Roswell Funeral Home on May 16, 2026, at 2 pm. The family invites you to attend and share your best stories about John, a man who lived as well as he loved.
The world won't be the same without him, but his memory will forever be a blessing to all who knew him.
