He had been working most recently for Com Ed as an Operations Coordinator.  John was a major sports enthusiast, whether it was playing golf, or following the Bears and White Sox. Most importantly, he was a loving husband and father and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

John is survived by his loving wife of 18 years, Christine Nawrot; his children, Eve and Stella Nawrot; his father, Robert Nawrot; and his sister, Johanna Nawrot. He is preceded by his mother, Pamela Nawrot.
