JOHN BABYCH It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved John. John was born on April 22, 1946 in Hilversum, Netherlands. John was predeceased by his mother Nellie; his father-in-law Andrew; his sister-in-law Kellie and his dear friend Chris Quesnel. He is survived by his wife Barb; his three children, Krista (Mark), Ken, Tyler (Tamara); his grandchildren, Haylee, Harlyn, Harrison, Taylor, Jack and Avery who meant the world to him. He is also survived by his mother-in-law, Mary; in-laws Drake, Tom and Timi, Debbie and Al; nephew Drew (Teresa); niece Danis (Ashley) and their children. John will be missed by an endless amount of friends including Shelley and Phil and Bonnie and Andre. John was always the life of the party. The next party will be to celebrate his life, backyard Babych style on May 27, 2016 at 123 Countryside Way, anytime after 4:00 p.m. Everyone welcome. In lieu of flowers we ask that you pay it forward. "And he only loved one woman, he was always proud of what he had, he said his greatest contribution is the ones you leave behind"

Thanks to His Canadian hospitality, a family bonfire and welcome into the life at Neil Ave. His stories are memorable and his tales unbelievable. - Posted by: Peter and DArcy Wilson (Aussie "cousins") on: May 27, 2016

Barb, Krista & Mark, Ken, Tyler & Tamara, and all the wonderful kids …. We offer our deepest and most heartfelt condolences at this difficult time. John’s smile and friendship were a gift to everyone who knew him. He definitely was the life of the party – and he had a way of making everyone feel welcome and loved in a way no other person can. He gave the strongest, warmest, most wonderful hugs. One of my favourite memories of John was how he “encouraged” Grant and I to get married by telling Grant that he was going to propose to me if Grant didn’t hurry up and do it himself. My life was blessed to have known him even in as small a way as I did. We know that John’s passing has left a huge hole in your hearts – take comfort in each other and everyone who loved him and know that he lives on in our hearts, our memories and the Heavens. “He said it's alright 'cause I see angels And they got me by the hand; Don't you cry, and don't you worry, I'm blessed, and I know I am; 'Cause God has a place in Heaven For a small town Southern man” ~ Candice on behalf of the Snider Family - Posted by: Candice (Family) on: May 25, 2016

So sorry for your loss. I will always remember John as the most outgoing person I ever met. To say he enjoyed life is not doing him justice...he reveled in life, enjoying every second of every minute. He will, indeed, be missed by not only those closest to him but by everyone who ever had the privilege of crossing his path. - Posted by: Sheila de Jong (Fried) on: May 25, 2016
