John Clark Springsteen, 60, of Mineral Ridge, passed away on November 12, 2024, after a brief illness. Born on December 11, 1963, in Albany, NY, to the late Clark and Della Springsteen, he moved to this area in 2020 to be closer to family. John graduated from Rensselaer Jr.-Sr. High School in 1982 and retired in 2020 after working at Albany Law School.
John is survived by his beloved wife of 35 years, Teresa, who he met in 1971. Their deep friendship blossomed into a lifelong partnership. He is also survived by his sister, Patti Mosesson (Steve), with whom he shared a close bond, as well as their son, Christopher, to whom he was equally close. John’s relationship with Steve, who taught him to drive, and with Chris, whom he introduced to classic rock, was foundational to his life.
John was a passionate firefighter, serving 22 years with the Rensselaer Fire Department, and he collected firefighting memorabilia throughout his life. His pride and joy was a 1966 Ford Galaxie 500, restored as a replica Fire Chief car, which he enjoyed showcasing at car shows. He appreciated the friendships of fellow enthusiasts and was grateful for the support of his neighbors and community, particularly the Weathersfield Township Fire Department and Hospice workers.
He was deeply moved by the kindness of his friends, especially John and Michelle Collins, and was thankful for the unwavering support of his family. John passed peacefully, comforted by his faith and the love of those around him.
