Mpls, MN - John Ramon Tongson, 44, of Minneapolis, had his life tragically stolen from us on January 10, 2026.

John was known for his kind spirit, infectious laugh, and a sense of humor that could catch you off guard and keep you smiling long after. Being around him meant laughter, warmth, and a mischievous spark that could brighten any room. John's devotion to the Minnesota Vikings was unmistakable. A true outdoorsman with a lifelong love of nature, he cherished the North Shore and Minnesota's lakes and forests. A craftsman at heart, John had a way of making ordinary moments joyful, memorable, and full of life.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents, his uncle Gary, and brother-in-law, David Duran.

John is survived by his partner, Margie; his children, Adam, Ethan, and Scarlett; stepchildren Josh and Jina; his parents, Joe and Jeanne Tongson; sisters Natalie (Aron) Dahlgren and Kris (Corland) Hollander; nieces, nephews, extended family, and many dear friends.

A memorial celebrating John's life will be held Friday, February 6, 2026, at 1pm located at Washburn-McReavy Funeral Home in Edina, Minnesota. His family invites all who knew him to gather in remembrance and laughter, honoring the joy, humor, and light he brought into their lives
