John Bernard Hakken Obituary
With heavy hearts, we announce the death of John Bernard Hakken (Ada, Michigan), who passed away on December 5, 2025. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of John Bernard Hakken to pay them a last tribute.
As we bid John farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For John is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
