John Amos Cordle, 64, of Mansfield, passed away at his home on Monday, March 4, 2024.

John was born in Morehead, Kentucky on April 6, 1959.  He was the son of Moses and Bertha (Buckler) Cordle.  John was raised in Olive Hill, Kentucky where he graduated from West Carter High School.  Shortly after graduating, he moved to Mansfield.  He loved working, he worked for Milark Industries for 23 years and was a dedicated hard worker.  He appreciated being able to soak in a nice day fishing as his way to relax but most of all he treasured quality time with his family.

He leaves behind his wife of 42 years, Juanita (Bentley) Cordle; his children, Amy Cordle, Misty Bentley, Wilma Sauder, Ronnie Jo Cole, Donnie Cole ; grandchildren, Karley Sauder, Denise Czado, Noah Cole, and Jeff Tryon; great-grandchildren, Aria Adams, Kensley Adams, and Reggie Adams; his brother, Joe (Donna) Cordle; his sisters, Mosetta Slusher and Liz Griffth; his niece, Sheryl Cole; and many great friends.  He was preceded in death by his parents; his sister, Julia Spenlau; his brothers-in-law, David Spenlau, Darrell Slusher, and Ed Griffth.

The family would like to give a special thank you to the infusion center at OhioHealth, and Jessica Ball for their help in the time of need.

There will be no public services observed.  Memorial contributions may be made to the family.  Wappner Funeral Directors-Mansfield is honored to serve the Cordle family.
