John Mason Obituary
JOHN GILBERT MASON
August 11, 1959 June 27, 2019
John Mason passed away peacefully on Thursday, June 27th. John was a Colorado Springs native who loved his family and friends. Graduating from Air Academy High School and working at UCCS as a campus police officer, it was hard to run into someone who did not know John. He was someone who cared for everyone before worrying about himself. John always greeted everyone with an infectious smile and treated everyone with the utmost care and respect. He was loved by many and will be deeply missed.
John is survived by his 3 sons, Nick, Eric and Luke; mother, Marian (Punky); father, Earnie (Earnest) and older sister, Pam Hiller.
A memorial service will be held at 10AM Wednesday July 3, 2019 at the Shrine of Remembrance, 1730 E. Fountain Boulevard.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to your favorite charity in name of John.

You will never be forgotten, Johnny. You were one of the very first friends I met of Mike's. I will always cherish your friendship and all the fun times we had going to your mom and dad's on Sundays, eating bean soup and watching football. I will forever cherish your visit here in Phx when we toasted 3 bottles of champagne together, to life and great friends. Our inside joke....I will continue to laugh about our friend, Jerome...Rest in peace my friend. I will see you again some day. Love, Jules
