On Thursday morning, November 20th, 2025, John C. Daniels answered his heavenly call at home surrounded by his loving family. John C. also known as "Father John", "Poochie" and "Gramps" was born on June 23, 1957 in Palatka, FL to Late Mary Alice Green and J.C Daniels. John C. was educated at Palatka Central High; Class of 1975 where he played basketball. He was employed by Georgia Pacific for over 33yrs where he retired as a long standing dedicated factory worker in 2013.

John C. was a father to all & a friend to many. If he was not at work, sitting on his stoop, enjoying a cold brew, cheering on his favorite team, the Florida State Seminoles or playing horseshoes, he was cleaning the rims to "Old Dirty Blue", a 1980s Grand Prix edition. His absence leaves a void that can never be filled in the hearts of his loved ones. After a long and fulfilling life, we take comfort in knowing that God has called him home for his eternal rest
