JOHN ENDICOTT
John Endicott, born March 20, 1932, passed away September 26, 2021, at home surrounded by loved ones.
John was born in Calgary in 1932, and raised in Dallas and Houston, Texas. In May of 1956, he was honored to serve in the U.S. Army, stationed in Germany.
John attended the University of Colorado at Boulder and was a proud member of ATO fraternity. He went on to earn a PhD in Civil Engineering at University of Illinois at Champaign. In 1966, he began working at Chicago Bridge and Iron in Oak Brook, where he was lucky enough to meet his wife, LaVergne Tannis. They were happily married until her passing in 2004.
He was proud to have raised his grandson, Michael Fisher, with LaVergne in Villa Park, Illinois. He was blessed to have two great loves in his life. He met his sweetheart, Grace Garlanger in 2014, and cherished every moment they spent together.
Throughout John’s life, he formed many memorable relationships and left a lasting impact on everyone who was lucky enough to be a part of his life. John was the most loving grandfather and husband a family could ask for. John was predeceased by his brother, Noble Endicott, and his sister, Elaine Herring. John was a strong, kind, loving, and supportive man. His knowledge and guidance were the foundation of his family.
Instead of flowers, our family requests that you will do an unsolicited act of kindness to celebrate the way he lived his life. Forever Loved, Forever Missed, and Forever in our Hearts!
