John Orr Musser, 50, of Rogue River, died Nov. 4, 2009, in Rogue River at his home.

John grew up in Southern Oregon. He moved to Coos Bay, where he had an assortment of jobs and where he accepted a position with Sause Bros Ocean Towing. This job sent him to Honolulu, Hawaii, for five years. John left Sause Bros for a short time to return to Portland, where he worked for Advanced American Construction and continued his maritime education. Eventually John found his way back to Sause Bros where he worked as a tankerman/bargemaster until January 2009.

John loved to work on cars and motorcycles and he was an accomplished mechanic. John had a quick wit and gret sense of humor. No one could tell a story like Johnny.
