JOHN DELUCA Obituary
John Francis De Luca (age 62)
Long-time resident of Gaithersburg, MD, went to be with the Lord and reunited with his parents Joseph and Dorothy DeLuca on Sunday, January 3, 2021. Pastor John loved the Lord with all his heart, devoting his life to serving Him in every aspect of his life. He ministered through music and sharing the gospel in detention centers and prisons providing comfort and hope to those most in need of spiritual guidance throughout all the years of his life. He is survived by his wife of over 30 years, Annabell DeLuca, and three children, Robert Sofley, John Michael DeLuca, and Jenna DeLuca. He was beloved brother of JoAnn Frazier, Nita Knighton, Joseph De Luca, Gina Modesitt, Dorothy Belcher, Ruth Jenkins, and Charlie DeLuca. A celebration of John's life is planned for later. www.snowdencares.com

I always remember him serving! He loved the Lord and his family and his church. He just loved! I've known him since 1975, and I've never heard ANYONE say anything bad about him...and there are very few people that that can be said about! I've been praying for his family! I know that Jesus took him because it was his time, and God wanted him to be closer to Him!

There is a sadness in the hearts of anyone who knew John. I went to SCL and Wheaton High with him and kept in touch through the years. For his family, I will keep him and you in my prayers always. RIP John - Heaven knows he was a really good man.
