John Henry McCullough was born to the late Marion “Mac” and Lucille (nee: Valley) McCullough on October 9, 1942.
He graduated from Park High School in 1960. He attended Trinity College. On August 16, 1969, he married the love of his life, Priscilla J. Yunk. Their marriage was blessed with two sons, Peter McCullough of Milwaukee, and Paul and Kerrie (nee: Sengenberger) McCullough; and granddaughter, Alexis (Gabriel) Comer.
At the age of 12 years old, John asked Jesus to be his savior after watching Billy Graham on TV. He was active in the Youth Christ Clubs during his high school years. He had a beautiful bass voice and loved to sing to praise God. John was active in The Gideons International.
John worked at Western Publishing, Jacobsen Textron, and the Transportation Security Administration at Mitchell Field in Milwaukee. After his first retirement, he worked at NAPA Auto Parts until the age of 77.
John is survived by his wife of over 53 years, Priscilla McCullough; sons Peter McCullough, Paul (Kerrie) McCullough; granddaughter, Alexis (Gabriel) Comer; sister, Judith Day; other relatives and friends too numerous to mention.
John is preceded in death by his parents, Marion “Mac” and Lucille McCullough.

John was on of the sweetest guys ever to work with. He came in, did a great job and always had a smile on his face. Who didn’t want him on their team?
TSA was lucky to have him and I was blessed to work with him.
Just a good, good man and very proud of his family.
My sympathies to the family.

Thoughts and Prayers. I remember sitting at the kitchen table while eating a handful, probably more, of Priscilla’s delicious homemade chocolate chip cookies, hearing John singing in the shower. A beautiful voice. An even more beautiful and kind man. He will truly be missed by many.
Rick Pezoldt says
John loved the Lord and was a good witness for Him. John was also a hard worker.

Cousin Johnny,
You always were willing to sing with that gorgeous low voice whenever the family asked. Always such a kind person and we were so blessed to have you in our family. We know you will be among the choirs of angels and looking down at us with that beautiful smile. God loves you and so do we.
