John Patrick Heffern

John Heffern age 70, of Noblesville, IN passed away July 13, 2019 at his home. John was a devoted hus­band, father, grandfather, and friend. He was born and raised in Toledo, OH, to the late Paul and Evelyn Heffern, where he spent his childhood years on the wa­ter and joking around with friends. He met Margaret, his wife of 46 years, when he was 13. He devoted his life to her and their four children, working hard to make sure that they always had every­thing they needed. John at­tended St. Francis de Sales Catholic School and Toledo University. He worked in food services for most of his life and enjoyed his retire­ment as a school bus driver for Hamilton Southeastern Schools. Along the way he loved fishing, cooking amaz­ing dinners for his family, gardening and cheering on Notre Dame football every chance he got. His favorite thing to do was have a good time with friends and fam­ily–always making sure they were having as good of a time as he did. His unfor­gettable laugh and ability to make guests feel welcome will be remembered by all who knew him.

John is survived by his chil­dren; John (Chris) Heffern Jr. of Ft. Lupton,CO, Colleen Heffern-Perusse of Fishers, IN, Matthew Heffern of Su­perior, Colorado, and Erin Heffern (Ryan Plummer) of Indianapolis, IN; grandchil­dren, Isabella, Quinn, and Scarlett Perusse; siblings, Ray Heffern of Carmel, IN, Mary Kwiatkowski of Tem­perence, MI, and Christine Therrien of Perrysburg, OH.
