John Anthony Paige, born Aug. 13, 1963, in Pasadena, Texas, passed away on Oct. 21, 2026.
John will be remembered as a man who worked hard and lived with a love for the outdoors and the open road. He was a Foreman and crane operator, and his work took him throughout the United States and abroad. That career reflected both his skill and his willingness to go where he was needed, building a life marked by dedication and steady effort.
Outside of work, John found joy in the pursuits he loved most. He enjoyed hunting and fishing, and he treasured the freedom of riding his Harley. These simple passions were part of who he was and will remain among the memories held close by those who knew and loved him.
John is survived by his sister, Rebecca Paige Koonce; and his brother, Arthur Gerald Paige Jr., known as Jerry. He is also lovingly remembered by his nephews, Dalton Hairston and his wife, Taylor, and Dylan Hairston; his niece, Amber Williams; his great-nephew, Wyatt Hairston; his great-nieces, Leah Hairston and April Hairston and Sherry Miller, his former wife. May the love of family and the many shared memories of time spent together bring comfort in the days ahead.
He was preceded in death by his father, Arthur Gerald Paige Sr., and his mother, Bette Jean Paige.
John’s life was shaped by hard work and the things he loved most. He will be deeply missed and warmly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.
