He was honorably discharged as a Yeoman 1st Class on May 2, 1946. On June 2, 1946, he was united in marriage to Frances Bloshinsky in Orange County, California. He lived in Dubuque and Atlantic, Iowa, where he was employed at Walnut Grove for several years before becoming and insurance agent. He was an insurance agent from 1969 until he retired in 2014 selling for several different companies during his career. Most recently he worked with Donnie Drennan in Atlantic until he retired at the age of 90. John was a member of the Atlantic Gospel Chapel in Atlantic.

He was an avid reader and especially loved to read Zane Gray books and other western novels, but you also would find him reading his Bible every day. He enjoyed watching college football and basketball and you would often see him attending and supporting the Atlantic Trojans in many activities including music performances.
