employment began as a carpenter for twelve or more years with a family owned
framing company. Due to health reasons he left framing and went into his other
career interest Real Estate. He started his own real estate company as owner
and Broker of Lindbloom Realty for almost 30 years. Through those many years
John met and developed many long-lasting business and personal friendships.
John
was a man of many interests and talents. In his younger years he hunted,
fished, and would go off road traveling wherever he could get a vehicle to go …
or Not go! His favorite pass time was cars. He loved working on them, building
them, and above all racing them. In his high school years, he raced his Camaro
out at the Firebird racetrack. Then he became a father and devoted his time to
the family taking them on many enjoyable adventures hunting, fishing, boating,
and camping. He also provided the family a home on the river that provided so
many great memories of growing up and living there. He came back to this hobby
in 2010 with a 1966 Chevelle, and soon after shared this hobby with his wife
and her 1971 Chevelle. Together they enjoyed many great times racing and
creating another family of friends there at the track.
John
loved his family, home and friends. He devoted himself to his family above all
to provide a good life full of love and happiness as best he could. He loved
his children and grandchildren and did his best to instill in them the values
of how to live a good life. To always help those in need, to honor and complete
any commitment or goal you made or tried to achieve to the best of your
ability, above all to stand by your word.
