Obituary of John J. Storte

John Storte, a devoted husband, father, grandpa, brother, cousin, uncle and friend passed away on Thursday, July 1, 2021. John was a kind-hearted, loving, easygoing, and funny man to all who knew him. Being at home with his wife, children, and dog was John's greatest joy. A recent highlight of his life was when John became a grandfather for the first time to his little granddaughter, Mia, who brought immense pride and joy to him and his wife, Donna. John was a carpenter by trade for many years, and happily retired at the age of 55. His passions included music and sports. Throughout his life, he loved going to rock concerts and sporting events with his family and friends. John also loved relaxing and having a good time. His favorite time of year was the summer, when he could man the grill with a spatula in one hand and a cold drink in the other. He also enjoyed going on vacation. Some of his greatest memories were made during trips to Aruba, Jamaica, Italy, Greece, London, Arizona, and the Jersey Shore. John is survived by his wife, Donna Storte; his daughter and son-in-law, Sallyann and Robert Fredericksen; his sons, John and Scott Storte; his granddaughter, Mia Sadie Fredericksen; and his sister, Mary Kane. He also leaves behind a number of family members and friends that will miss him dearly, including his furry son, Sammy, and his grand-dog, Riley. John's friendly and caring presence will always be with us, and he will be remembered by all who knew him. We are confident that he will be receiving a warm welcome in the next life from many, including his parents, Julia and John Storte; his grandparents; his great-aunt, Frances "Dolly" Arcuri; and additional family and friends who have passed.
