After his marriage and for most of his life, Mr. Pinneo was an active member of the First Assembly of God Church in Joliet, Ill. He was a west side commissioner for the Boy Scouts, teaching Indian history, and designing and constructing a tepee that could sleep 12 men. This tent was displayed at many of the Scout jamborees.
In 1984, he retired from Commonwealth Edison after faithful employment for 34 years.
His favorite hobby was constructing and flying remote control aircraft. After moving to Sierra Vista in 1992, he joined a local flying club.
When able, Mr. Pinneo attended Calvary Chapel and a local support chapter of former POWs.
His family celebrated his life on Sunday, Feb. 24, 2008, the day after his passing in the family home. We love and miss him, but know we’ll see him again.
