John Patrick LeMay was born in 1949 at the American military base in Guayaquil, Ecuador to Wilfred Herman and Violeta Elena (Allen) LeMay. He passed away at the Sandhills Care Center in Ainsworth, NE on June 28, 2021 at the age of 71 years from complications of a broken hip.

As a child, John moved from one country to another as a result of his father’s military service as a navy pilot. The family eventually settled in Gettysburg, PA where John and his younger brother Barry spent the majority of their childhood. After completing two years of college at York Junior College in Pennsylvania in the Broadcasting and Liberal Arts Program, John took a job with Showco, one of the leading concert sound and equipment providers in the entertainment industry. There, he began a long and fruitful career in the music business. He later took his audio engineering skills to Los Angeles where he became a recording engineer for Capitol Records in Hollywood, working on the albums of the Beatles, James Taylor, Smokey Robinson, Diana Ross and many others. He later went to work for George Lucas at Skywalker Ranch in California where he served as a sound editor for films such as Indiana Jones, Willow and Spaceballs. John considered every music project he worked on as an opportunity to be an artist - a painting made with sound.
