He is also survived by two grandchildren, Amanda and Kristal and five great-grandchildren, one niece and four nephews. He also had a very special friend, Barb Hatt of St. George, NB.

John worked for the CP Railway for 39 years and was an avid volunteer for Meals on Wheels, the fire department, Manor board, Village council as well as coaching many students in various sports.
