Jeffson John, age 53, of Rockford, passed away peacefully at his residence on October 15, 2024. Born on December 26, 1970, in the Marshall Islands, he was the beloved son of the late Ishmael and Eoner (Lani) John.

He also leaves behind seven adoring grandchildren: Nickson, BJ, Tira John, and Ely, EJ, Aleelli, and Annaya Zackraias, as well as fifteen siblings who will miss him dearly.
A proud high school graduate, Jeffson dedicated much of his life to farming. He was known for his hard work, vibrant spirit, and love for his family.
