John Charles Squier, age 60, passed away peacefully at his home in Ransom, Kansas, on September 10, 2021. He was born October 22, 1960, to Russell and Veta (Walker) Squier.
John was a United States Army Ranger veteran, world traveler, poet, author, philosopher of life and brother to many. One of John’s greatest achievements was the publication of his novel and his collection of poetry writings.
Survivors include a brother Marion Lee (Colette Pearce) Squier, Austin, Texas, 2 nieces Stefanie Squier and Cecily (Dave Kehr) Squier; 2 great nephews Nels and Karsten Visser; and many friends he met along his journey in life. He was preceded in death by a brother William Squier, Jr; a sister, Doveta Squier and his parents William Russell Squier and Veta (Walker) Squier.
John left his stamp on this world through his stories (told and untold) and friendships along the way. John left us with some simple yet profound words of advice “Don’t ever change and keep learning. Do what you love and continue to grow with it. Never stop growing as a person. We all get this one life, use it wisely.” He lives on in the hearts and minds of his many friends, family and colleagues.
Services will be held October 23, 2021, at 2pm at the American Legion Sunley-Squier Post 382, Brownell, Kansas.
Memories and words of support can be left for the family by writing in the guest book.
