John was born to Albert Akim and Elizabeth (Betty) Bossany on March 18, 1965, in Stillwater, Minnesota.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Albert Akim and Elizabeth (Betty) Bossany, and sister, Brenda Rettinghaus.

John is survived by, his children, Johnny (Brea) Akim III and Jade (Tyler) Akim, grandchildren, Rasheed, Evelyn, Isabelle, and Addison, siblings, Bennet (Bonnie) Akim, Bob Akim, Michelle (Jason) Baskerville, and Melanie Akim, and former wife, Angela Akim, as well as many nieces, nephews, and other loving family and friends.
