John Vidrinskas

John Vidrinskas, age 83, of Grants Pass, passed away March 20, 2020.

‘What the heart has once known, it shall never forget.’

John, his parents and siblings immigrated from Lithuania in 1950. He was extremely proud to be an American and serve his country, sharing his stories with anyone who was interested. John was VERY patriotic!

John had a contagious glowing spirit of love and joy that he so freely gave to his family, friends and others. He was loved by all who met him and will live on in our hearts forever.

John was amazing at anything he put his hands to; from faux painting to working on cars, tractors and everything in between. He was the “Fix-it Man”. He enjoyed repairing and restoring everything.

John loved his dogs through the years and was always supportive of the local wildlife, making sure they were taken care of too.

John is survived by his wife, Marla; his children, John, Jeff, and Jennifer; brother, Joe; niece, Gedra; 17 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.

John was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Maria and siblings, Frank, Emma and Margo.
