Condolence: A shock of John's sudden passing indeed, has hit us all! Gone too soon. Truly John's legacy will be his gifts of humour, steadfastness and generosity to friends and family. We can recall his chiding of us followed by laughter, John setting the pace both in terms of frequency and volume! He will be missed for sure. I am sure John has been received with "Well done good and faithful servant!"

Condolence: Jennifer and family.
I am saddened to know about John's passing. I worked with him at Spruce Falls in the Customer Service Dept. and he was always a calming influence in the office. He loved a good practical joke as well. Please accept my sincere condolences at this time.

Condolence: Our family was all so saddened to hear of John's passing. My heart is heavy with the news...he was such a wonderful man, so kind and patient. I have great memories of your visits to see Mom and the fun she and he had gossiping about Kapuskasing. He had the greatest smile and laugh. He will be truly missed and fondly remembered.
