I am saddened to report the passing of our brother, John LePera, the ultimate Seabee patriot. He fought a hard battle this past year dealing with his Agent Orange complications and succumbed on Tuesday morning, February 23rd.

John was born on January 29, 1948 and passed away on Tuesday, February 23, 2016. John was a resident of Surfside Beach, South Carolina at the time of his passing. John was a proud veteran of the United States Navy Seabees. He was married to Illona and is survived by 3 sons and 5 grandchildren.

John has been involved in all of our reunions until his health issues forced him away. We will miss him dearly.
