John H. Fain
July 3, 2020
John H. Fain, 68, died July 3rd, 2020 in Daytona Beach, FL. John was a beloved brother, uncle and friend.
Born in Atlanta, John was a firefighter for the city for nearly 30 years, following in the footsteps of his father and grandfather. John was fascinated with cars and fire trucks and loved collecting those types of models. He also enjoyed books about history and the music of Elvis Presley and Johnny Cash.

John unselfishly took care of his parents, Robert and Willene (Stroud), during their later years, who preceded him in death. John fulfilled this dream of living in Florida and retired to Daytona Beach, where he enjoyed walking with his beloved dog, Dexter. John was known for his kindness and generosity and will be greatly missed.

John is survived by his sisters, Margaret Arden and Jeanine (Gary) Lazenby, his brother Robert Fain, his nephews Scott (Amy) Lazenby, Robert Lazenby, and Jason (Nora) Fain, his nieces Allison (Mike) Gosser and Tracy Arden, and best friend Shelly Kerr.

A memorial service will be held on Saturday, August 22nd at 11:00 AM (ET) at the First Presbyterian Church, 118 East Monroe Street, Jacksonville, FL and will streamed live on Facebook on Fpc Pres, please see link below.

Class Of 1970

 
 
 

Dear Classmates,

In light of the uncertainties caused by the current worldwide pandemic, the Reunion Committee is in the process of rescheduling our reunion until summer of 2021. Once we have more information, we will let you know.
 

There is one idea we'd like for you to weigh in on. What do you think about combining our reunion with the Class of 1971? Would having a larger group be a positive thing or would you be more concerned about a larger group? Would you rather keep our rescheduled 50th reunion uniquely ours? We look forward to hearing from you.

Stay well!
Your 50th Reunion Committee

Southern Exchange Ballrooms...once the iconic Davison’s and then Macy's department store on Peachtree.

Davison's was founded in the late nineteenth century, bought by Macy's in 1925. Macy's constructed the Peachtree Street store in 1925. Macy's kept the Davison's name until 1985 when it was changed to Macy's. Macy's was bought by Federated in the early 1990s. Federated owned the other large Atlanta department store, Rich's. In 2003, all of the Macy's and Rich's were converted to the Rich's-Macy's nameplate. In 2005, the Rich's-Macy's nameplate was changed to just Macy's.

Rustic and more intimate than typical venues, the Grant Loft blends historic charm – with its exposed brick walls dating back to 1927. Located on the second floor of 200 Peachtree Street.
