John Grzan passed away peacefully on December 26th, 2024, at the age of 84, in the presence of his family, after bravely fighting against several illnesses. John was born on June 29th, 1940, to Joseph and Antonia Grzan in the town of Slunj, Croatia. The youngest of four children, he served in his native country’s army before meeting the love of his life, Maria and embarking on a restless journey crisscrossing the world with his young family that eventually led him to settle in a place that he had once read about as a boy in school, Ohio. John enjoyed a long and dedicated career in industrial machinery repair, running the J.M.R.R. (John’s Machine Repair and Rebuild) Company, which he created as a family business, where affectionately each letter also represented the first initial of the names of each family member. His reputation for top quality service made him sought after by machine shops throughout northeast Ohio and beyond. One of the few activities he loved that did not involve putting on his blue-collar work clothes was fishing in a picturesque river or lake. And he was always happy to have others share in the experience. He cherished the time spent with his family and generously provided his children with the means to pursue their own educational and life goals. And he would continue to volunteer his skills when needed for their car and home repairs. And buy them fishing gear. John was predeceased by his parents, brother, and two sisters. Left behind to cherish his memory are his devoted wife of 60 years, Maria Grzan, his children Robert (wife Cheryl) and Renata (husband Tom). A funeral Mass will be held at 10:30AM on December 30th, 2024, at St. Bernadette Catholic Church on 2256 Clague Road in Westlake, Ohio.
