John C. McMillan

Parker-Rhoden Funeral Home

John C. McMillan passed away at his home in Lodge on Tuesday, July 6, 2021.  He was 40.

John was born in Richland County September 21, 1980.  He attended the Camden Military Academy for two years before transferring to Walterboro High School, from which he graduated in 1999.  John later earned enough credit hours to receive an Associate Degree from the Salkehatchie Campus of the University of South Carolina. Throughout his life, he possessed a great love of the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing, which lead him to work alongside his father at McMillan Farms in Lodge.  John was a devoted son and brother, and he had a kind heart…never meeting a stranger…and always lending a helping hand to those in need.  He will truly be missed.

He is survived by his parents, Johnny and Donna McMillan and Linda and Ron Sammons.  He has five siblings:  Ben McMillan, Julie Mundell (Josh), Kyle McMillan, Benjamin Reeves (Inglish) and David Reeves (Kayti).  He was preceded in death by his grandparents John D. and Miriam P. McMillan, and Leon A. and Sara Spigener Carrier.

 Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon, July 11, 2021 at 3:00 at Carters Ford Baptist Church in Lodge, with burial following in the church cemetery.  The family will receive friends beginning at 1:30 in the church sanctuary.  In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorials be made to Friends of the Colleton County Animal Shelter (FoCCAS), 33 Poor Farm Road, Walterboro, SC  29488.  Parker-Rhoden Funeral Home, 117 Paul Street in Walterboro is in charge of arrangements.
