John E. Lovely Jan 2023

​John retired from the Omaha Works on 12/2/1999 with 42 years years of service. It was remembered that when John retired he was in charge of the preventive maintenance program for the Omaha Works with Bob Gaddie.

Additional note:  Normally spouses of passed on employees (who did not work) for the company are not usually posted on this site - EXCEPTION from me at this time.

Janice "Jan" Lovely was a nurse who passed away in July 19, 2022 (John's wife).  I would suppose pretty hard for John, since when I visited earlier this year- it was Jan holding the fort together, and they could no longer use the 2nd floor bedroom, as the sleeping was located to the main floor and living room.  ALL you multi floor home retirees - IMMEDIATELY go looking for a ranch style house Multi layers homes are for those under 60.

When I visited John/Jan Lovely at their home here in Omaha, always a kind word from her, and do wish wish something to eat.  Kitchen table talk, and admiring their backyard and birds, etc.  Where John and I would usually talk of old golfing days or people from the plant, or what new car did you get or a short trip over to HyVee for a dinner and more chat.
