John T. Gares, Jr., on January 29, 2017, of Washington Twp. Age 53. Beloved husband of Dawn (nee Bachmann). Loving father of John, III and Nichole. Dear brother of Christopher Gares (Anne-Marie) and Cindy Gares (Brian Wilcox). Devoted uncle of Amanda Gares, Mercedes Van Horn, Karley Gares, Ava Bachmann and Elizabeth Bryant.
John Taylor Gares, Jr. left this world so suddenly with little warning. His loss leaves our hearts empty and our minds spinning. We now have to cope with this parting by remembering who he was, how he affected us and how he would want us to honor him. We must honor him by representing his greatest qualities. We must be brave like him and have courage. We must be kind like him and love one another. We must be selfless like him and help each other. We must have his sense of humor and laugh like him. Our John had such a unique soul. Friends and family, please leave wishes and memories about our John that help us celebrate his spirit. A spirit that even the happiest of person would envy. Your kind words and memories shared are appreciated by John’s nearest and dearest. Let us remember our John and the way he lived his life, and how he helped us live our own.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend his viewing Saturday 9:00 – 11:00 am at Egizi Funeral Home, 119 Ganttown Rd., Washington Twp. Funeral Service 11:00 am. At the request of the family casual attire is preferred.
In lieu of flowers, donations in John’s memory may be made to Archway Children’s Partial Care, P.O. Box 668, 280 Jackson Road, Atco, NJ 08004-0668.
Condolences may be shared with the family at www.egizifuneral.com

How can I share a memory when there are so so many! You where there before Chris and I even became Chris and I. So many long talks about Chris and I getting together and having our girls. That's rights our girls. The first time you held Amanda so proud! When helped Mercedes to talk me into having a pet SNAKE! Picking up Karley and taking her fishing with you and Johnny boy.Oh and how proud happy you were when Johnny boy was born! Your stink you called him.Then that sweet baby girl was born that stole your heart Nikki Babe! Always with the love of your life Dawn! I will never forget the day you got married. Your love for her just grew stronger and. stronger over the years threw the good and bad! This isn't fair we were all suppose to grow old together! You are already missed. You will never be forgotten. Rest easy that we got your back with Dawn , John ,Nikki and our girls. You will be missed at each and every mile stone of their lives. I will remind them that you are with them always. Thank you so much for all the memories. Rest easy John save a spot at the big people table :kissing_heart::kissing_heart::kissing_heart::kissing_heart:
