During his lifetime he lived in several different communities, including Sabina, Ohio, Cincinnati, Ohio; Omaha, Nebraska; Fort Collins, Colorado; Chicago, Illinois and Glenwood, Iowa.

As a child he played little league ball and continued playing into adulthood, eventually coaching baseball. He was a huge Chicago Cubs fan! He thoroughly loved his family but always had a passion for sports and he and Jenni were both board members of the Glenwood Booster Club. Camping, golfing and outdoor activities were also of great interest to him.

On October 24, 1998, in Glenwood, Iowa, he was united in marriage to Jenni Anderson. They enjoyed living in Glenwood and caring for their three children; Clayton, Logan and Riley.

John was employed at the Glenwood Resource Center for a number of years.

On October 31, 2010, he entered into eternal rest following a long and courageous battle with cancer.

Survivors include his wife, Jenni; children Clayton, Logan and Riley Giesting; parents, Jim and Tricia Giesting, all of Glenwood; brother, Joe Giesting of Chicago, Illinois; brother-in-law Travis (wife, Tennille) Anderson and parents-in-law Kathy and Pat Anderson; nieces and nephews Kayla, Caleb, Conner and Cerah Anderson of Glenwood; aunts, uncles, cousins, other extended family and many wonderful special friends.
