Surviving are his loving Mother, Rose Stewart, of the homeplace in East Bend; his sister, Amy Stewart Riggan of East Bend; a very loved nephew, James Curtis Riggan of Goldsboro; and several aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. John worked 20 years at Forsyth Medical Center in Winston-Salem, and recently with Stewart Hauling of Belews Creek as a heavy truck driver. He loved collecting classic model cars, going with friends to concerts, especially spending time with his nephew, James; and taking care of Nigel and Ellie his two English Bullie Dogs.
