- Isaiah 54:10
Just after midnight on the 2nd day of May, 2021, our Heavenly Father in His infinite mercy called his suffering child to his Eternal Home where there is no pain. Manu Johannes (John) Nojonen, our beloved husband, father, grandfather and paappa was born on February 25, 1935 to Rauha and Matti Nojonen in a sauna on the shore of Vaarajoki, Ikaalinen, Finland. Perhaps that is why he always loved the sauna for the total relaxation and cleansing it provided followed by a dip into the lake wherever possible.
John was the second born to a family that would have six children. He was four years old when his father was called to serve his country at war. It was then that John was sent to live with his aunt and uncle, the thought being that if the battle reached Ikaalinen at least the eldest son would survive.
