Sorry to hear this shocking news. I worked with John at Thorne's back in the day. John was always so strong and healthy. He was a very hard worker and always had a joke and a smile. Although we haven't been in touch these past few years, thinking about John always makes me smile. Again, sorry for your loss. Glen

Our Friend , Our Co worker and a Big part of our Work Family. We will miss his sense of humor. We'll always cherish the kindness that he showed us all at Source Atlantic. John always had a helping hand for his fellow employees. If you had a conversation with him it didn't matter who you were, or what was discussed you walked away with a laugh and a smile. John helped us solve the problems of the world on many occasions, not to mention a few times for Source Atlantic.Johnny was a hard worker he didn't know any other way. He was the Guy you want on your team, because he never let up until the job was done.
We his work Family are going to miss all that John was to us! Most of all in his memory will miss Johnny The Man!! Rest in peace Our Brother.... Fred Ingraham

Dear Michelle,
What a loss for all those who had the pleasure of John's company. I have so many memories of him at Oceanic Campground telling jokes around the bonfire, climbing on top of our trailer to help, and always the Life of the party!! Sylvie & Patrick were his pride and joy...they are wonderful young adults who will be a huge comfort to you as you cope with this shocking turn of events. John always admired your strength and ability to be the "shining star" to keep everyone on the right course. It is wonderful you have such a large supportive family & network of friends who will always be there for you. I count myself lucky the day we connected with your family in Shediac.
All my love
Doreen
