by Sheryl Heather
John S. Heather was born on June 27th,
1943, raised in East Moriches and graduated from Eastport High
School. He retired as a Sergeant from the Suffolk County Police
Department in 1986, and was the owner of Spring & Summer
Activities in Hampton Bays. John would have liked to be best
remembered by his enthusiasm for life, his love of friends and
family, and his strong faith. He was an usher at Immaculate
Conception R.C. Church in Westhampton Beach, participated in
many local charities and was a past President of the Lions Club
of the Moriches.
An auto racing fan since childhood, he owned stock cars for many
years and took great pride in the team’s 3 NASCAR Late-Model
Division Championships at Riverhead Raceway. He was an
accomplished woodworker and collector of antique woodworking
tools, an avid reader and a crossword puzzle enthusiast.
