John was born on November 5, 1924 on a farm in the Silver Creek Municipality near Angusville, MB to Charles and Sophie Huta (nee Gensorek). Dad was very proud that he had completed grade 12.

Sonya was born there in 1954. After a fire destroyed their business, they moved to Winnipeg and Wesley was born there in 1955. Dad was employed at the Post Office, H & R Block, and various other companies. He was very passionate about the Injured Workers Association of Manitoba which he founded. Dad loved playing cards, travelling, socializing, and playing bingo. Dad is survived by his daughter Sonya (Vern Effa); and their three children, Breanne (Garett Beres), Scott (Jessie Toffan), and Darla (Taylor Lang). Dad was so proud of his five great-grandchildren, Grady, Baylee, Stevie, Tobbi, and Taylor.
