John Osich, 89 passed away on the morning of February 9, 2020 at a local care facility. He was born in Boise, Idaho on August 10, 1930 to Marko Osick and Mary Milinkovic Osick. He was the second of four children and a descendent of Yugoslavian immigrants. He grew up on S. 13th street while his mother worked in a café, and later a boarding house as his father passed away in 1948 when John was 18 years old. John attended Park Elementary grade school and then St. Teresa’s Academy. Staying in school was a challenge for him. He always joked about how his mother would walk him to school and he would beat her back home because of his strong will and dislike for school. Once out of school he worked for two years before joining the Air Force refueling aircraft during the Korean War.
