John was a energetic social butterfly. No matter where we went he always made friends. He took on a premade family, and loved all (6) of our children the same. He worked hard his entire life, and John Zello did more in 43 years than most people do in 75 years. He was a wonderful father to Ashley, Brandy, Jeff, Andrew, Kayla & Heather. When his first granddaughter was born, she was the light of his life. She kept him going especially when times were tough. I'm thankful to have had the 15 years that we did have together. But I know he is now home and safe from all of the evils in the world. He will always be remembered by me, and cherished and loved by his children and grandchildren.
