elevated 1dJYX John was a skilled Electrician and member of the IBEW Local 353 Brotherhood for over 55 years. John was a valued member and goalie of the Thursday Night Old Boys (TNOB) and was forever grateful for the lifelong friendships created during his time on the team and the bonds he made within the Brotherhood.

elevated 1dJYX John was known to enjoy a day on the golf course, a Jay’s game and was an avid Leaf’s fan who never missed a good ol’ hockey game. You would often hear him enthusiastically shouting “GOOOAL!!!” from the basement which would echo through the entire house.

elevated 1dJYX John would never say no to a good cup of tea and a slice of apple pie. Among John’s greatest joys was time spent with friends and family.  He loved quality time with his grandsons including drop in visits, listening to and talking about music, festive breakfasts and walks through the park. He especially loved watching his grandsons’ sports games and we know he will be cheering them on from above.

elevated 1dJYX Over the years, John enjoyed traveling with his Wife Debbie, family and many close friends. John enjoyed reading a good book, sitting on the back deck listening to the birds, watching an episode of Star Trek and making a Saturday morning shopping trip to Canadian Tire.
