John Bierlein Obituary

John Bierlein Jr.

With great sadness we announce the passing of John Bierlein Jr. on June 11 2022. John was a father, a husband, a son, a brother and a great friend to so many.

John was born in Fairfax, Va. Served his country Honorably in The Honor Guard, Drill Team, Casket Team as well as The Tomb of The Unknown Soldier.

He is survived by his mother and father, Alice and John Bierlein; his wife, Anne Marie Bierlein; his son, Aiden Bierlein; his brother, Paul; sister, Vanessa, nieces and nephews, as well as friends from all over the country.

John's true passion was helping others. Whether it was helping his son advance in his race career or thinking of others before himself even when he was fighting cancer.. John made his wishes clear. He didn't want a funeral. He wanted a Celebration of his life. Imagine a man who is comforting us even after he's gone.

We will honor his wish and have a Celebration of John's life on September 17, 2022. All family and friends are invited. Please email us at [email protected] for details. And just a quick note for those that think John lost his fight with Cancer. John didn't lose. He is a fighter. He never stopped fighting. You don't lose when you don't quit. His strength should be an example to us all. Our separation from John is just temporary. We will see him again. A gofundme page has been set up by family and friends to help Anne Marie and Aiden and ease the stress into the next phase of their journey.https://www.gofundme.com/f/john-bierlein-jr?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1
