was working for, build the Julian Dubuque Bridge, John Deere Company and a telephone company, all in Dubuque, IA. His love of spending time outdoors was evident as he moved to Mount Vernon

(currently known as White Farm) and retired from his position in 1976. John took great pride in providing for his family as he was also an accomplished self-employed cement finisher and
bricklayer.
John lovingly treasured the time he spent with his family and friends. He was a member of St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church, a member of the United Auto Workers Union and belonged to the
Eagles in Dubuque. He found great pleasure in traveling extensively with Dorothy on vacation bus trips, daily card games of two-handed ã500,ä tending to his pet cat, Bud, socializing with
friends and bowling in his earlier years. John had a great passion for spending as much time as possible outdoors and enjoyed vegetable gardening and meticulously grooming his lawn and home.

Reveland, Jr., and his wife, Jenean of Charles City; one granddaughter, Jessica Reveland of West Des Moines; two grandsons, Allan Reveland of Boise, ID and Curtis Hickle and his wife, Tracy
