I had the honour and priviledge of working with John at Dofasco, his dedicated work and willingness to help others will always be remembered. God Bless him and his family.

Rest In Peace Brother John you will be missed by many, Time too use those flies and get fishin.

On behalf of D-Team at the reheat's, thanks for all the hard work and memories. You will be fondly remembered by all your co-workers and will be sadly missed.

Gail, I am so sorry to hear of Johns sudden passing and that I did not get to see him a few times before he left. John was one of my best reasons for going to work every day and one of the few things I miss about the steel plant. We had the “stay or go” debate so many times I just wish he could have had a few retirement years to relax and have some fun. John will long be remembered by everyone he allowed close to him. I will truly miss John. My most sincere regards, Brian

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Gail the boys, Cheryl, Lorraine, Lee and families. It's truly a time to remember the good times, cherish memories, friendships and famiy. Sadly missed by Pat, Mick, Tracey (Hector) Gary (Debbie)and families.

John was such a friendly guy when ever we were getting together and having some fun with Donna and Paul you were always ready to take part. Ken and I will miss you dearly , your wit and charm will always be remembered I hope you are up there with that fishing pole resting at your favorite spot . We only wish we had gotten to know you many yrs ago rest in peace John Sandy and Ken

I thought I'd better let you know,

The reason I've gone missing,

I'm where there's a ten pound angelfish,

That's right, I've just gone fishin'.

A man named Peter at some gate,

Asked if I had permission.

My angler's license got me in,

And now I'm happy fishin'.

The waters here are crystal clear,

Better than the creek in Vanessa.

You get a bite at every cast,

In this lovely river Heaven.

Don't worry all - I'm happy here,

Yes, I've simply just gone fishin'.

Love ya Brother.

Dean

ps. Save me a spot on that river Heaven!

I always enjoyed working with John. Aside from being such a hard worker, he always stayed upbeat, no matter what was going on. Rest in peace, John.

On behalf of johns shift I would like to send our condolences and prayers. John was a great guy who everyone liked and one of the hardest works I've ever worked with. He will be missed very much by all who knew him. God bless and thanks John from all of us who knew you for all you've done.
