In his early years, John was a mechanic and had owned and operated John Carney Logging for many years.

John was a member of the Comancheros Car Club and a life-time member of the NRA.

John loved to drag race his car in Deer Park and was a gun fanatic; if it had wheels or could shoot, he was right in the middle of it. John also enjoyed building his model train tracks. He revolved most of his later life around his grandchildren, four-wheeler riding and gun collecting.
