Born in Kennett Square, on July 26, 1926, he was the son of the late Domenic and Domenica (DiFilippo) Mazzoni.

During WWII he served with the 13th Air Force at Clark Air Force Base in the Philippines.  He belonged to the American Legion and the Veterans of Foreign Wars.

After serving, he was employed as a carpenter for H.G. Cooper, G.F. Snyder, and was a member of the Carpenters Union Local 456.

He had a great fondness for animals.  If a stray needed a home he would happily adopt it with great love.  Thus, throughout his life, he had many dogs and cats that were fortunate to be in his care.

John is preceded in death by his siblings, Jean H. Huffman, Mary Tomasovich, James D. Mazzoni, and Elizabeth M. Troyan.

His final resting place will be in Saint Patrick's Cemetery in Kennett Square.
