John C. Humphrey, 79, formerly of Plum Borough, PA, passed away peacefully Monday, May 10, 2021, at his home at Redstone Highlands in Murrysville, PA after a long and courageous battle with Parkinson’s Disease. Born in Mt. Carmel, PA on January 21, 1942, he graduated from Dickinson College with a degree in biology and from Duquesne University with a master’s degree in biology. He was attending the University of Pittsburgh for his PHD when he discovered his true passion for teaching. John was a professor of anatomy and physiology at CCAC, South Campus, retiring after 36 happy and fulfilling years doing what he loved. He enjoyed listening to jazz and collecting American Flyer trains. John was preceded in death by his parents, Chester Humphrey and Mary (Fagley) Humphrey, and his cherished daughter, Kristen Humphrey. John is survived by his loving wife of 53 years, Michaela “Mickey” (Reynolds) Humphrey, his daughter Janet Johnston, son-in-law Gregg Johnston, and his two beloved granddaughters, Lindsay Johnston and Anna Johnston, as well as many friends and family. John was a truly wonderful man whose kindness, generosity, and excellent sense of humor was evident in everything he did. If there was one thing John would want everyone to know, it was how much he loved his family. He will be greatly missed by those lucky enough to have known him.
