John A. Samson, age 90, of Shiocton passed away on Wednesday, May 18, 2022 at Edenbrook Nursing Home in Appleton. He was born on May 4, 1932 son of the late Alonzo and Elizabeth (Latza) Samson.

He was united in marriage to Rose Kruse on June 23, 1951 having celebrated over 70 years of marriage.

John enjoyed his work as a truck driver retiring in 1991. He enjoyed farming pigs, sheep, and beef. John also liked the time he spent riding his motor scooter taking rides around the area at night. Riding on his John Deere tractor around the farm was one of his favorite things to do. He was a man that loved being outdoors working on various projects and fixing things. John survived a stroke in July, 2008 that no longer allowed him to enjoy his time outside.
