Passed away on April 5th, after a courageous battle with pancreatic cancer. Beloved husband to Irene, devoted father to Meagan and Marcy and very proud Dziadzie to Matthew. Loving brother to Liisa (Kevin) and uncle to Dylan (Shannen). He will also be greatly missed by his brother-in-law, Stan, sister-in law, Jean (Wayne) as well as niece and nephew, Melissa, and Stephen, along with former son-in-law, Steve and his mother, Fran.

John worked in the IT industry for many years as an IT Director and later transitioned into a successful career in IT Consulting. He was highly respected for his intelligence, leadership and sharp sense of humour and left a lasting impression on all those he met.

Lifelong friends, the Hughes and Whittles were incredibly supportive to John and his family, especially during his illness. Their friendship, love and kindness were deeply appreciated.

John will be sadly missed. He left us all too soon.
