Upon graduation, John was awarded a Bachelors Degree in piano performance and earned a teaching certificate. He began teaching school, and he and Lois were married in 1941. Soon World War II interrupted life, which prompted John to enlist in the Army Air Corps to pursue his love of flying. He flew 68 missions in Italy as a B-25 pilot. He was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross for his valor. After the war, John and Lois settled in the San Francisco Bay Area where John became a music teacher in Oakland.

Together he and Lois raised their four children in the East Bay Area. The Huttos were known for their involvement in church music.
