PLYMOUTH - John “JP” Michael Pasley, 52, passed away on Tuesday, Sept. 17, 2019.

Born in Plymouth on Nov. 20, 1966, John was the son of Janice Ellinger and Larry Fisher and John L. and Debbie Pasley. He graduated from Plymouth High School with the class of 1986 and continued on to attend Vincennes College where he received his associate’s degree in criminal justice.

 For the majority of his career, JP had the privilege of doing what he loved best: serving the people of his community. He was an officer with the Plymouth Police Department for 10 years and a firefighter with the Plymouth Fire Department for 15 years. Most recently JP served as the supervisor of security at Allied Universal to ensure the security and safety of the DePuy Plant in Warsaw. At JP’s core, he wanted to help everyone. He would stop to help anyone in need and in his chosen careers he was able to impact so many people’s lives in a positive way.

 JP is survived by his wife, Susan Pasley; son, Tyler Pasley; son, Cody Pasley; daughter, Sabrina Pasley; grandson, Owen Dee Michael Pasley; his mother and father, Janice and Larry Fisher; his father and mother, John L. and Debbie Pasley; brother, Joel and Angie Fisher; step-daughters, Sophia Smith, Kathryn Smith and Olivia Smith; nieces, Caitlyn, Callie and Charlie Schwichtenberg; and nephews, Jacob and Tucker Fisher.
