John Alfred Mascioni, Jr., 59, of Bolivar Drive, Bradford, passed away Tuesday, July 30, 2024, at the Olean General Hospital, surrounded by his loving family.
Born on July 22, 1965, in Olean, NY, he was a son of Gail Liane (Tice) Dunkle, of Bradford and John A. Mascioni, Sr., of Limestone.
He was a 1983 graduate of Bradford Area High School.
After high school he apprenticed at McCourt Label which led to a 20-year career there. He later worked in the Electronics Department at Walmart, until his health failed, and he was unable to be employed. John courageously battled significant health issues for years and was the recipient of a heart transplant. Over the course of his treatment, he became more than a patient to many of his providers - he also became a friend.
He formerly volunteered at the Bradford Regional Medical Center and at the SPCA where he also served on the board. He loved tinkering with electronics and computers.
Surviving in addition to his parents are three sisters, Christine (Bill) Gibble of Bradford; Jodie Auteri of Frederick MD; and Lisa Dunkle of Roulette; two nieces: Megan Vasquez; Mackenzie Lem; and several paternal aunts, uncles, and cousins.
He was preceded in death by his cherished and beloved dog Hunter, his maternal and paternal grandparents, one aunt and one uncle.
Services are private and at the convenience of the family.
Funeral arrangements are under the direction of Hollenbeck-Cahill Funeral Homes, Inc.
Memorial contributions, if desired, can be made to the American Heart Association of Western PA, 444 Liberty Avenue, #1300, Pittsburgh PA 15222, or the SPCA P.O. Box 113, Bradford, PA 16701.
