In Loving Memory of
JOHN MIHALOVICH
January 27 th , 1936 – July 21 st , 2020
John was born in Duquesne, Pennsylvania. He and his wife Alice were happily married for 63 years. They lovingly raised six daughters together. John was a hardworking, devoted, and loving husband and father. The couple were introduced by their dear friend George Yasko and became pen pals while John was serving in the United States Marine Corp. He reached the rank of Sergeant before his honorable discharge in September 1956. John received an Associate Degree in Engineering from Penn State University in 1959.
After meeting in person, John and Alice knew they were meant for each other. They married in 1957 and began their life together in Duquesne before John accepted a position as an Electrical Engineer with Brown & Root in Houston, Texas in 1969. John eventually retired from the company in the summer of 1999.
John loved to garden and could repair almost anything. He also enjoyed harvesting grapefruits from the tree in the back yard. John also liked to tinker in the garage and in his early years would make doll furniture for his six daughters. After living in their home in Houston for 30 years, they moved to Solana, an independent retirement living community in Spring, Texas.
