Hailing from a long line of John Mead's, stemming as far back as the Civil War, John was born in Vermont, but his family soon moved west to California.

He was one of the first vice presidents of Southern California Edison (SCE) where he worked until he retired. He remained active in civic and social clubs primarily in the Long Beach area.

After losing his wife Florence in 1974, John kept company with his companion, Eve, for the remainder of his life.

On the evening of New Year's Eve, 1981, John suffered cardiac arrest and was taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and ultimately transferred to Long Beach Memorial where he passed away.

He was survived by his son John (Abby); daughter Diane (Walt), six grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
