Cochran Funeral Home of Hiawassee announces the death of Mr. John B. Sellers, Jr. age 76, of Hiawassee, formerly of Vero Beach, FL.,who passed away on Wednesday, May 13, 2015.
John was born in Arcadia, Fl on June 6, 1938 to John B. and MaryAnn Sellers and later moved to Vero Beach, FL.

After retiring, John moved with his loving wife of 30 years to beautiful Hiawassee, GA.
