Mary Jane John Obituary

With solemn hearts, we announce the passing of Mary Jane John of Stone Creek, Ohio, whose presence will be deeply missed, having departed on January 1, 2026 at the age of 87. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Mary Jane John to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid Mary Jane farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Mary Jane is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

She was predeceased by: her parents, Ralph Ridenour and Evelyn Ridenour; her siblings, Sue (McPherson) and Jim; and her grandson Matthias Young.

She is survived by: her husband Charles John; her children, Victor John and Amanda Young (Jerry); and her granddaughter Ella.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Norma Johnson Center or Emmanuel Lutheran Church.
