John was born on June 23, 1961 in Los Angelos, CA to John ‘Skip’ and Jo-Ann Hanchera. He spent most of his childhood and early adolescence in Sault Ste. Marie, MI. He lived most of his adult life in Muskegon, MI.
John could talk or make friends with anyone. It seemed, no matter where he was, he would always run into someone he knew. He was a sports enthusiast and enjoyed attending racing, hockey, and baseball events; as well as his children’s and grandchildren’s sporting events. John loved music and enjoyed playing the guitar. He was known for his quick wit, sense of humor, and his hard working nature.
John was preceded in death by his father, John ‘Skip’ and his mother, Jo-Ann. He is survived by his three children, John (Brittany) Hanchera, Kassi (Cameron) Dean, and Sierra (Patrick) Mulholland, his sister DJ (Ed) Malloy, his two brothers Dale (Pam) Hanchera and Darby (Joanie) Hanchera, three grandsons Jordan, Jaxin, and Jayce, a nephew Sam, and a niece Shelby.
