John Carl Payne passed away on June 16 at the age of 85. He was born May 29, 1939, to Carl and L. Evangeline (Mingus) Payne in Bath, NY and is survived by his wife Susan and son Luke.

He received his Certified Life Underwriter designation in 1977 through Bryn Mawr College in Pennsylvania. John loved the racket sports, playing table tennis and badminton, and he played tennis in high school and college. In addition, he loved golf. He also had a huge interest in health and read extensively on the subject. Enjoying travel, the family had great vacations in Florida, Mexico, and on the QE2.
