John was survived by his two sons Jerry (Diane), Robin (Tracey), daughters Lynda (Dave), Sharon (Doug); John’s beloved sister Bonnie, and numerous nieces and nephews.
John was a wonderful husband and very caring and loving father. He was a great man, well respected, a War Veteran to be honoured. John came to Canada at the age of 5 from Russia. He went back to Europe during WW2 in the Canadian Army to fight the oppression his fore fathers had survived. Johns post war employment was in working with heavy construction – highways and bridges, operating and repairing heavy equipment.
