John was born January 29, 1944 in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania to John and Ann Lavin. He grew up in Camp Hill and graduated from Bishop McDevitt High School in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania in 1961.

John is survived by his wife Rosemary of 53 years, son Andrew, daughter Sharon, brother Jim (Claire), sister Nan (Mike) Ross, and loving nieces, nephews and extended family. John will be greatly missed.

He served as department head and president of PSEA for many years. John was the men's tennis coach and Wallingford Swim & Racquet Club's tennis pro for many seasons. He was an avid University of Notre Dame fan, where he earned his M.A. in 1967.
A special thank you to the people at Rose Court at Maris Grove Retirement Community in Glen Mills for their loving care and support. Also, the family would like to extend their sincerest gratitude towards family and friends who visited John during his past year there.
