John was honest, very friendly and a true gentleman. I worked with him many years at CBC and found him to be a super man. - Posted by: Rolly Dufault (Co-worker at CBC) on: Sep 11, 2012

I will always remember Uncle Johnny's gentle nature, and quick wit. He and Aunty Eileen were a perfect match. He leaves a wonderful legacy through his children. He will be greatly missed. - Posted by: June Mestery (Nephew Don's Wife) on: Sep 10, 2012

Other people who knew Uncle John far better than me will provide colourful details and good stories. What I want to say is that this man was easy on people. What an astonishing quality and gift to others...that you make them laugh and enjoy their day more! Cheers Uncle John! - Posted by: Susan Gfellner (Niece (Sister's daughter)) on: Sep 10, 2012
