JOHN MARION
Founder and CEO
John Marion has been an active member of the Springfield, Missouri community for many years. Together with his wife, Tanya, he has raised five children, and they are now proud empty nesters.
John founded John Marion Custom Homes in 1994 while serving as a professional firefighter—a career that spanned 27 years. After retiring as Battalion Chief from the Springfield Fire Department, he dedicated himself full time to his passion for building high-quality, energy-efficient custom homes.
