He also attended Dunwoody Institute to learn the printing trade. He worked for a variety of print houses locally and also taught printing at Boys Town, a boy's reform school in Wales, WI. He would eventually start up a family business with his wife, Mary, in Deer Park, WI in the basement of their home in 1971, called J&M Printing, which they owned and operated until their retirement. It was Deer Park that they called home and raised their family. John was active in the local community, serving on the Lions Club and roles within local government.
