John M. Hatcher Jr. Obituary
In loving memory of John M. Hatcher Jr. (Iowa City, Iowa), who departed this world on June 12, 2025. John leaves behind a legacy remembered by family and friends. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As we bid adieu to John's earthly form, let us not dwell on the void left in his wake, but rather celebrate the legacy of love and inspiration John has bequeathed us. For though he may have departed from our sight, his spirit remains a timeless beacon, guiding loved ones through the labyrinth of life's journey.
John enjoyed working on the farm in his Cat excavator, tending to larger-than-life tomato gardens (which saw profit through his free-will donation mason jars), and splitting wood in his home-built wood shed (complete with a wood-burning stove for year-round splitting).
