John R. Cellan Sr.

The Lord called John home on September 16, 2021. He was 69 years old. John loved the Lord and had strong faith.  He was born March 24, 1952, in Billings to Elsie Martin and James Cellan. With both of his parents passing away at an early age John was raised by his aunts and uncles. This made him very independent, and he started on his own at an early age.

He married the love of his life Jeanne Rogers on June 12, 1970, they had three children. Early in their marriage he managed two different Bairs Truck Stops moving them to Shelby, MT and then Hardin, MT. After leaving Bairs John worked as a truck driver and diesel mechanic before becoming a partner in the feed business. He continued his career in the feed business for the next 18 years. He retired in 2004, then worked odd jobs and restored vehicles before he became fully retired in 2013. read more
