Samuel “John” Sevier

Samuel “John” Sevier, age 71, of Branson, Missouri.

Samuel “John” Sevier, age 71, of Branson, Missouri, passed away on October 9, 2021. He entered this life on April 3, 1950, in Houston, Texas, the son of Samuel and Annette (Cossey) Sevier. John was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Mary Sweeny; and sister, Gail Sevier. 

John proudly served in the United States Army and devoted his time to the Wounded Warriors. He later obtained his master’s degree from the University of Oklahoma and became a therapist for those dealing with substance abuse. John was an adrenaline enthusiast, always looking for his next adventure. In his lifetime, he logged 2000 jumps from planes. John enjoyed his time in nature: fishing, walking, hunting, and any natural body of water. He was an amazing painter, avid golfer and harmonica player, loved listening to classic rock and blues, crank-style popcorn, and finding the perfect tomato. John touched the hearts of many throughout his life and will be forever missed. 

John is survived by his children: Sydney, Samuel, and Shawna; granddaughter, Mara; and over a dozen cousins he considered siblings. He is also survived by his “heart” Cynthia Spraker and Branson family: Cee and Kimmy; and Dan and Elaine.
