John G. Reddy

JOHN G. REDDY, age 61, passed away peacefully on Thursday, September 21, 2023, after a long courageous battle with cancer.  Beloved husband of Jill for 31 years; loving father of Julianne and Jenna; son of the late Beverly and Dan; brother of Karen, Mike and Jim (Wanda); son-in-law of Nancy and the late Joe Popchak; brother-in-law of Thad Popchak (Elsa); uncle of Adison, Joshua and Mikayla; dear friend of many.  John was a proud Berea Brave and an OU Bobcat.  He was a dedicated mail carrier who retired from the U.S. Post office after 32 years of service.  John will be remembered for his engaging ways and kind heart.  His incredible sense of humor and one-of-a-kind spirit will be missed by all. With his quick wit and magnetic personality, John had a way of brightening the room and stealing the show, and that was exactly the way he liked it.  John was at his best with a cigarette in one hand, a beer in the other and an audience before him. A special thank you to the staff of Holy Family Hospice.  Our gratitude for the exceptional care and compassion given to John and our family can never be fully expressed. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to Holy Family Hospice, 6707 State Rd., Parma, OH 44134.  Prayers of Christian Burial at the funeral home, Tuesday, September 26, 2023 at 11 a.m. Interment Brooklyn Heights Cemetery.  Family and friends received at THE RIPEPI FUNERAL HOME, 5762 PEARL RD.
