He furthered his education by attending OTI in Klamath Falls. He was employed with First National Bank in Klamath Falls from 1948 to 1952. Active duty called again but this time for two years with the United States Army as a PT Harbor craft operator in Okinawa. Upon his return, he continued his work with First National Bank but in Pendleton, Oregon as a field representative.
On September 10, 1955, he married Marie Weinke at Peace Lutheran Church in Pendleton, Oregon. His next career move would last almost forty years working for Stein's Valley Beverage, Inc. as a route salesman for thirty-one years and then Coast Distributing for another six years.

He was a Hall of Fame Life Member of the Pendleton Roundup. The family home was only blocks away from the Roundup grounds and he had many fond memories of the Roundup.
Over the years, John's hobbies changed from snow skiing, bowling, swimming, horses and refinishing furniture to reading, playing cards, hunting, fishing, spending time in the mountains at his cabin, and being with his family and friends.
