John was a much-loved father, grandfather, and great-grandfather and will be greatly missed by his two daughters, Linda (Ed) and Karen. Also left to cherish his memory are his seven grandchildren, Paul (Lisa), Andrew (Laura), Jennifer (Suhail), Katie (Anthony), Ian (Katie), Heather and Laura (Skye); six great-grandchildren, Sam, Ava, Eadie, Roslyn, Gus, and Anaya; also three brothers, Henry, Ed (Sylvia) and Walter (Norma); and two sisters, Anita (Neil) and Margaret (Fred), and many nieces and nephews. John was predeceased by his loving wife Elsie, in 1994; his parents, Dietrich and Anna; and five brothers, Peter, Jacob, Dietrich, Ernest and Harold. The family will hold a celebration of John's life on Thursday, March 1, 2018 at 1:00 p.m. at the First Mennonite Church, 922 Notre Dame Ave. Respecting Dad's wishes, cremation has taken place and a private family burial will be held at a later date.
