“John Husted passed away March 1, 2010 at his home in Treasure Island, Florida, from heart failure. He was the eldest son of Harold H. and Barbara R. Husted. John grew up in North Plainfield, NJ where he was valedictorian of his graduating class and a champion pole vaulter. At Dartmouth he was a member of Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society, Sigma Nu Delta fraternity and he sang in the Glee Club. At the age of 23, while in graduate school, John developed chronic schizophrenia. This disease devastated his brain and thought processes, destroying his early promise. Despite the fact that the schizophrenia damaged many of his close relationships with family and friends, his mother, Barbara, maintained a loving and caring bond with him throughout his life. He is survived by his mother Barbara, brother Rick Husted, and sister Heidi Quist, all of Denver and his sister, Cindy LeFever, of Red Bank, NJ. A graveside service was held on Thursday, April 1 at Littleton Cemetery in Littleton, Colorado.”
