JOHN EDWARD KLINGEMAN

My beloved husband, John, left me suddenly on July 21, 2023. He was born in Winnetka, IL on August 5, 1941. He attended Michigan State University and served in the Marine Reserves then worked in his family's business, real estate, and lending. John was a loving stepfather to Vic Ferraro, Sheryl Ferraro, and John (Gwendolyn)Ferraro, grandfather to Robin Ferraro, Desmond Naranjo, Jessica Ferraro, Jennifer Ferraro, Sean Ferraro, and great granddaughter, Noura Ferraro. He leaves behind his wife of 48 years, Patricia Klingeman, sister-in-law, Carol Klingeman, brother-in-law, David Ewert, sister-in-law, Nancy Klingeman and sister-in-law, Linda Collins Klingeman, many cousins, nephews, and nieces, also, many friends and neighbors here in The Villages, Illinois and Pennsylvania. He was preceded in death by parents, Harvey Klingeman and Clara Struve Klingeman, and siblings, Peter, Paul, and Harry Klingeman and Rhoda Ewert. John was just a great guy and the love of my life! He was a real "Inspector Gadget." He loved hardware stores and aways had just the right part to "fix it". He loved The Green Bay Packers and The Chicago Bears; when they played each other, "oh no"! A memorial will take place at a later date in Illinois. Those who may wish to, please send memorial donations to the COPD Foundation at 3300 Ponce de Leon Blvd. Miami, FL 33134.
