It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of John McBride, a cherished past participant of The Journey Project and a remarkable individual whose life was defined by dedication, kindness, and a deep commitment to his community. John’s passing leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew him and a legacy that will continue to inspire for years to come.
John McBride was much more than a participant in The Journey Project; he was a beacon of positivity and a role model for what it means to give back. During his time with the project, he made it his mission to keep Tukwila International Boulevard clean and inviting for everyone who passed through. Whether picking up litter, maintaining order, or ensuring that the area was well-cared for, John’s efforts spoke volumes about his pride in his community. He poured his heart into his work, demonstrating a deep sense of responsibility and service that resonated with everyone who encountered him.
Beyond his commitment to cleanliness and order, John had a flair for beauty and nature. Year after year, he maintained the property’s flower beds, tending to them with care and ensuring they flourished. His attention to detail and love for the natural world transformed ordinary spaces into vibrant, welcoming havens that brought joy to countless people. The flower beds he nurtured were more than just plants; they were a reflection of his soul, blooming with kindness, creativity, and love.
John’s life was as multifaceted as it was inspiring. A skilled pilot, he found joy and freedom in the skies, often sharing stories of his adventures and the fulfillment he felt while flying. Those who heard him speak about his time in the air couldn’t help but feel his passion for life’s boundless possibilities. He was also a man of culinary skill, having worked on the East Coast crafting delectable lobster rolls—a job he cherished and approached with the same dedication that defined every other aspect of his life.
Perhaps what stood out most about John was his unwavering work ethic and his warm, welcoming personality. He had a unique ability to connect with people, leaving a lasting impression on everyone he met. John embodied the essence of second chances, using his life as an example of resilience and the power of giving back. His humility, combined with his quiet determination, served as a reminder of the profound beauty found in service and gratitude.
The impact of John McBride’s life is immeasurable, and his passing is a loss deeply felt by his family, friends, and all who were fortunate enough to know him. He was a man who left every place he touched better than he found it, and his legacy of selflessness, joy, and dedication will continue to inspire others to make a difference.
As we mourn the loss of John, we also celebrate the life he lived and the countless ways he enriched the world around him. His memory will forever be a source of inspiration, reminding us to approach life with kindness, passion, and a willingness to give back.
