John G. Mooney
John “Johnny” George Mooney, 59, passed away suddenly of a heart attack on August 10, 2018, while working in California. John is predeceased by his parents, George and Mary (Williams) Mooney, and his stepbrother, John Karl (Kary) Albright. He is survived by his brother, Scott Mooney, of Michigan, and sister, Margaret (Emery), of Florida.

John’s profession was truck driver, taking him to many states across the U.S. Johnny was a true free spirit and traveler of the earth, riding his Harley motorcycle on trips to Mexico, Guatemala, Panama, Columbia, Ecuador and throughout the United States.

John was born in Detroit, Michigan, on May 16, 1959, and moved to Arizona in his late teens, remaining in the West and spending most of his life in the Fernley, Nevada, area. At the time of his death John was a resident of Denton, Texas.

John will be greatly missed by his family and many good friends. Private services will be held in Michigan and a memorial will be held in Nevada at a future date.

HagenComment text: Maybe there is more to this story than what is reported, but it seems to me that the businesses that are causing this problem ought to be paying for this, or at least a major portion of it. Why does the County have to pay the whole bill?
