The RIP Thread...

John Adler, 64, of Chester, VT, passed away unexpectedly at Tufts Medical Center in Boston, MA on November 15, 2025.

Born in Perth Amboy, NJ on January 12, 1961, John was raised in Berwick, Maine and graduated from Noble High School. He went on to receive an Associates Degree in Forestry from Paul Smith’s College. John cut his first trees at age 12 and spent a good share of his life logging and teaching others to log safely as a Game of Logging instructor. His other passions included first and foremost spending time with his wife, daughters, sons-in-law, and grandchildren. He played guitar and had a beautiful voice and used it to serve the Lord and his church and to bring joy to many. Fishing and long-distance bike rides round out the list.

John was well known in his field and will be remembered for his passion for and commitment to instructing others to operate a chainsaw safely and efficiently while he owned and operated his own logging business for 42 years. He and his wife built their cabin on the side of a mountain in Vermont and all those who love him will remember him as their Papa Bear.
