Loving husband, father, brother, uncle and friend died unexpectedly in Mexico with his family by his side. John was a strong Christian with a generous spirit. A gentle giant. Larger than life. His door was always open as was his heart. He was a wonderful, giving man with a great sense of humor. A creative marketer, innovator and entrepreneur.
John was preceded in death by his parents, Eigil and Ellen Kallerup.
Survived by loving wife, Kimberly; children Nicholas, Benjamin and Kaitlyn; brother Erick; sister Kathrine (Dan) Dettman; nieces Nikolena (Nathan) Beadle, Christina Dettman; nephew Michael Dettman; and other relatives and many friends.
He was easy to love. It is hard to say goodbye to such a loving soul. He will be missed by many.
