John and I were best friends growing up. We walked to school together everyday. Played hockey, joined cubs and scouts and were altar boys together. 
He will not be soon forgotten.

I'm sorry to hear about the passing of John 
Growing up my whole life with John next door (Gerry,David ,John and Michael ) on Taylor Avenue with the Kanes is a memory the Rorabecks cherish 
Sending my deepest sympathy

We are so saddened to hear about the passing of John.  
John was Ryan's support worker and special friend for over 20 years.  Ryan has so many special memories of John and the fun times they had on their weekly excursions with the "Men's Club".  John holds a very special place in Ryan's heart and he will be missed.  He was such a kind, special man with all the patience in the world and will always be remembered for his dedication, compassion and positive attitude.  
We extend our deepest sympathies to John's family during this very difficult time.

John was my dear buddy James Knowlton's Passport worker for many years. James often talked fondly of the trip they took to Graceland and he'd often take James and some friends on a weekend trip to Niagara Falls every June. We joined them there once. He was dedicated to his work and would often visit James in the hospital when he was in palliative care. He'll be sorely missed and my heart goes out to his friends and family.

Our family is in shock. One of my favorite cousins gone way too soon. I remember our childhood days and they were always awesome. The frequent visits in Oshawa and the times at Presquile. Your whole family meant the world to us. We have never forgotten and we never will forget all our memories. May you rest in peace sweet cousin. Condolences and prayers to John's family.
