John J. McCaffery, 90, Twin Lakes, WI., went home to the lord, surrounded by family and love, on Monday, October 26th, 2026 at Aurora Medical Center in Burlington, WI. John was born in Chicago, IL., on August 11th, 1936 to his parents Michael, and Rose Ella (Looby) McCaffery. John married the love of his life, the late Rosemary McCaffery on November 11th, 1960 at St. Joachim Catholic Church in Chicago, IL.
John was a very dedicated person, a husband, a father, and grandfather. John was also a very religious person to his Catholic faith, he was very active in the Villa Desiderata retreat house, and a member of St. Joseph Catholic Church in Richmond, IL. John made sure to not only be apart of his grandchildren’s lives, but made sure he never missed an event they had going on. John will be greatly missed.
John is survived by his children; John McCaffery Jr., Michael (Laura) McCaffery, and Michelle (Bob) Durkin. He is further survived by his grandchildren; Jacob (Shannon), Colton (Rylee), Brody, Cameron, Benjamin, Logan, Emerson, and Michael. John’s legacy will continue on with becoming a soon to be great grandfather.
John is preceded in death by his wife Rosemary, his parents, his siblings; Lester, Laverne, and Rosemary, as well as his granddaughter Dorothy Grace.
In lieu of flowers any consideration for a Donation in John’s name to St. Joseph Catholic Church, 10519 N. Main St. Richmond, IL., 60071, would be greatly appreciated.
