ed himself to educating himself and others on the need for advancements in pediatric cancer therapies. He traveled the country with Jack in search of treatments and made connections with physicians, researchers, and fellow parents in an effort to unite childhood cancer victims, families, medical professionals, treatments, trials, and research with promising possibilities. John Bartosz singlehandedly set up more pediatric cancer charities across the country than any other attorney. He guided parents, families, and philanthropists of all kinds though the process and helped them join the battle. He sat on numerous boards and gave mountains of solid advice. He not only helped with the legal aspects of all the foundations he served, but gave honest insight on how to do effective philanthropy. He gave hope and guidance. While actively helping run and establish other foundations, he started the amazing I Back Jack Foundation with Sarah in 1996 and Gold In September (G9) Charitable Trust with Annie in 2013 believing no other family should face the heartache of a childhood cancer diagnosis. All the while, John fought numerous life-threatening battles with his own health all a result of the long-term side effects of the cancer treatments he had endured. His tenacity, resolve, and brilliant mind were with him until the very end. John was an honorable person, a global thinker, a successful entrepreneur, and a thoughtful philanthropist, all with a quick wit, hilarious sense of humor, a deep and abiding capacity for love and laughter, and a spirited determination. More than anything, John was a proud and loving husband and father. He will be dearly missed by his wife Sarah Detling Bartosz, his surviving children Anne (14) and Thomas (3), his father John W. Bartosz of Lac du Flambeau, WI, his in-laws Andy and Julie Detling of Presque Isle, WI, his brother Chris (Robynn) of Waukesha, his brother David of Madison, WI, and sister-in-law Katie (Aaron) Kincaid of Rockford, IL. He is further survived by nephews Alex Bartosz and Griffin Kincaid, niece Abby Bartosz, other relatives, and many dear friends. He was preceded in death by his beloved son Jack and his mother Carolyn Tule Bartosz.
