John Aaron Ball
John Ball, born June 2, 1947, lost his battle with cancer on October 26, 2023 at home with his loving family surrounding him. Everyone knows John affectionately as “Pa”. He will be so very missed by his wife of 59 years, Peggy (Ma); three kids – Shawn Ball, LaVon Gambetta (Michael), Rhonda Knowles (Rick Jones), grandkids – Jordan Gambetta (Carla), Sara Zediker (Scott), Derek Knowles (Krysta), Ryan Knowles (Adrienne Harkey), Kelsie Jones, Riki Jones, three beautiful great-granddaughters – Brynn Knowles, Claire Zediker, Mila Gambetta, and Pa’s brother Bruce Ball (Maryanna).
Pa is a long-time Cloverdale resident (1959) who always had a smile and joke ready. He adored his family and loved to sit around the table playing games, a round of pool or video game nights with the grandkids. Anyone lucky enough to hang out with Pa knows his famous junk food runs, rock & roll music, fantastic Christmas displays and his love of dancing.
Please join the family for a celebration of life. Pa’s wishes are for a celebration filled with music, dancing, and love. Saturday, December 9th at 3:00pm at the Cloverdale Grange Hall, 201 Commercial Street, Cloverdale CA 95425.
