John Buford Street of Lewisville left this earth to be with his Lord and Savior August 31st, 2024, at his residence in Lewisville at the age of 70 years old. John was born March 20th, 1954, in Fort Worth, TX to Bob and Helen Mays Street. John was the first of two children God blessed their union with before Helen's passing at a young age.

After John's mother passed away, he lived with his grandparents Herman and Lena McAllister Mays in Mason, TX where he often spent summers working on the ranch of family friends Dick and Lila Jo Polk with their children Richard and Cara Polk who he loved like adopted siblings and remained close with throughout their lives. John was a 1972 graduate of Mason High where he was a proud Mason Puncher and loved living in Mason where he was close with friends Craig Chew, Rimmer Fowler, Warren Grote, and participated on the cross-country team.

John then attended college at the North Texas State University, now the University of North Texas, where he studied business and was a 1976 graduate with a degree in business management.

John then worked in several management and supervisory roles in various north Texas area businesses for the rest of his life to include Arrow Industries, Fastenall, Home Depot, Lowes, and most recently Advance Auto Parts.

John attended services at several area churches thru the years to include First Methodist of Haslet and Central Baptist of Lewisville.

John enjoyed several hobbies throughout his life including woodworking, scuba diving, motorcycling, auto repair, travel, hunting and firearms, homebrewing beer, candle making, and country music. John also served his community as a volunteer firefighter with the Haslet VFD.
