MCJUNKIN Posted Thursday, March 16, 2017 6:00 am John Henry "Mac" McJunkin, 82, beloved husband of Ann McJunkin, died on Monday, March 13, 2017, at his home. Born on Feb. 18, 1935, in Rosman, North Carolina, he was a son of the late William Andrew McJunkin and Ilenia M. Galloway McJunkin. John married his childhood sweetheart, Annie Hollifield, on Nov. 9, 1956, at Grace Baptist Church in Brevard, North Carolina. Shortly after he and Ann married, John joined the U.S. Air Force, where he proudly served his country for 21 years prior to retiring in 1978. During his years in the Air Force, he served both stateside and overseas assignments to include Korea, Johnston Island, Japan and West Berlin, Germany. Following his retirement from the Air Force, John was employed by Williams Furniture for several years before going to work for Union Camp / International Paper in Eastover. He retired from International Paper in 1998. John, never one to be idle, returned to work for International Paper on an as needed basis until Dec. 31, 2014, just before his 80th birthday. John was a true servant of the Lord. Wherever the Air Force sent him, he would find a church home and serve in any way that he was needed. For the past 35 years, he was a member of Hickory Road Baptist Church, where he served faithfully in numerous capacities. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather and great-grandfather. Survivors in addition to his wife include one son, John Michael McJunkin and his wife, Laurie, of Sumter; three daughters, Faris A. Dale and her husband, Richard B.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by a brother, Walter McJunkin. The family wishes to thank Agape Hospice of Sumter, especially Dr. John Fleming, Amber Sapp, Gallman Wicker and Chaplain Ed Cheek, for the loving care they provided to John. Funeral services will be held at 4 p.m. on Friday at the Elmore-Cannon-Stephens Funeral Home chapel with the Rev. Ron Taylor and the Rev. Ladell Humphries officiating.

It was John's wish that everyone who attends his funeral wear their favorite ball cap.

Honorary pallbearers will be Ryan Bagnal, Richie Holbert, Rick Dale, Jim McDaniel and Bryan Blochberger.

Elmore-Cannon-Stephens Funeral Home and Crematorium of Sumter is in charge of arrangements. My father's obituary is listed on the above referenced website (John Henry McJunkin, DOB: 02/18/1935, DOD: 03/13/2017) as well as various family tree/ancestor information for my parents, my siblings, myself and our children. Some of this information is incorrect – for one, my son is Shayne Andrew McJunkin, not Holbert and not Marchman; and my daughter is Cheyenne Faith McDaniel Harper, not Holbert. My sister, Jennifer Jean McJunkin Marchman has two sons, Ryan Patrick Bagnal, and Sean Blair Marchman. She does not have a son named Shayne Marchman – there is no Shayne Marchman in our family. I don't know why my family is listed on this site or where the information was obtained other than newspaper obituaries. My oldest sister, Faris Annette McJunkin Dale, has done extensive genealogy research on our family, and we are not sure where there is a Singleton connection to our family. We would love to hear from you to fill us in why our family is on this site. Please feel free to contact my sister, Faris, at gracey1507@yahoo.com. Thank you, Sandra McJunkin Holbert [2, 4, 6] | |
