On Monday, January 4, 2021, John S. Atkins, age 63, loving husband and father, passed away in his home after a courageous battle with multiple myeloma. John resided in Dormont with his wife of 43 years, Donna (Burke). Donna and John met on a blind date and were later married in May of 1978. John and Donna went on to have two children, Melissa White (John) and John T. Atkins. John was also the proud Pap of his three adoring grandchildren, Madeline, Sean, and Ryan White. John had a special love of animals, especially his beloved dogs, Rocky and Ginger, who were by his side through his valiant fight. John was an Army veteran and a hard worker who took great pride in his work and could be found tending to the grounds as Chatham College for many years. John was also the owner of JSA Landscaping, from which he developed many special friendships through the years. In addition to his wife, children, and grandchildren, John leaves behind his beloved "Mum," Sally Pint. John was preceded in death by his "Dad," Ronald Pint, and sister, Donna George.
