UNFORGETTABLE! That’s who you were! Thousands have known you, multitudes have loved you and no one will ever forget you! John Americo Marchetti, age 85, departed this life for his eternal home on Sept 6th, 2020 surrounded by those Read Obituary
I was honored to serve with John Marchetti in the Tennessee Air National Guard. He was a true patriot. One of those you could count on. Plus he was just a lot of fun to be around. A great morale booster. My prayers for his family and friends.
Colonel Mark Johnson, USAF, Retired
As I really started to think back about John; I really could have written a book almost! He was the type that didn't need a supervisor, he knew what needed to be done and he just did it, and then some! Always willing to pitch in and help others! He'd be one of the first to show up on the job and one of the last to leave, he'd stay until the job was done! The only thing that you might have to talk to him about was horseplay, LOL. He did love to cut up,but I'm willing to bet that you couldn't find one person who ever had anything bad to say about John!! Guess I'll stop here, like I said, I could almost write a book about the times we shared together and things!
God Bless and comfort his family and friends; because I know with out a doubt he will be missed!
I will forever remember him! I too had the privilege of serving with him in the Tennessee Air National Guard; and everything they said good about him was absolutely true! Always new how and enjoyed making people laugh! I remember when he told me about Purity Milk Company did him after 28 years of loyal service; down through life I've always sort of had a private boycott against their products always thinking of him!! He was truly an awesome guy and a pleasure to have worked with and served with! I was actually his supervisor, by position only, for a number of years; and can remember saying during deployments and times when we needed good hard workers: I sure wish I had at least a dozen like John, there would be no worries about getting the job done!!
Love you my brother, and will see you again soon, I'm sure of it!!
