John leaves behind his wife Ann (married just shy of sixty-one years), his children Janet (Jeff) and Michael, and grandchildren Jordan (Jalayne) and Jocelyn. John was a wonderful husband, father, grandfather and friend to many. He was greatly loved by us, and will be sorely missed.
John was born in Stockport, England and attended Cambridge University. In 1963, John and Ann married and moved to Canada, settling in the Cowichan Valley. He was an excellent high school teacher, avid gardener, lover of nature and science.
