“Forever Loved, Never Forgotten”
The Navy Gold Star Program is eternally grateful for the sacrifice of those Service Members who have died in service to our country. To help us to never forget, we have set up this tribute page to honor and remember the memory of those lives. If you would like to honor the memory of your Sailor, Soldier, Marine, Airman or Coast Guardsman through the Navy Gold Star website please submit your thoughts and a photo.
John A Deltoro, a wonderful son, brother, husband, and father. He lit up any room he entered with his smile and sense of humor. His laugh was infectious. He loved his children with his whole heart. They were his world and he made sure they, and his wife Heather, never went without. John and his sister Sarah had an unbreakable bond. He and his brother in law Philip were more like brothers than in laws. John and his brother James enjoyed spending time together. John always checked in on his mom and stepdad Carl, his dad and stepmom Kathy(although in our family, "step" wasn't a word), and other family members. He loved football and was a die hard Georgia Bulldawgs fan. He enjoyed woodworking and was an avid gamer. John was proud to be a member of the United States Navy and felt honored to serve his country. He is loved and missed by all he touched.
