The Phoenix community mourns the passing of John McLaughlin, a beloved husband, father, and friend. John, who studied Applied Science at Wyoming Technical School and attended Paradise Valley High School, was deeply rooted in Phoenix, Arizona, where he built his life with his wife, Ashley, and their five children: Patrick, Peyton, Paisley, Pryce, and Piper.
Known for his dedication to his family, John and Ashley’s life together epitomized a shared vision of love and commitment. John and Ashley worked tirelessly to create a family home, a cherished goal John spearheaded with unwavering dedication.
This family project, representing the couple’s shared dreams and aspirations, now remains unfinished following John’s sudden passing. With the family facing both emotional and practical challenges, close friends have come together to support Ashley and the children in their journey to complete this home and establish a place of stability and comfort.
John’s passing, friends and family have organized a GoFundMe fundraiser to provide assistance, hoping to help Ashley complete the home John began.
Organizers of the fundraiser emphasize that every contribution will support the family’s stability, ensuring that Ashley and her children can remain in a secure, familiar space as they grieve.
The appeal also encourages those unable to donate to share the fundraiser, recognizing the broader community’s ability to offer support in various forms. This collective effort stands as a testament to the love and respect held for John McLaughlin, whose legacy now lives on through his family and those he touched in the Phoenix community.
