Losing your Dad is the worst, but I know that he will be with you forever, and you will know it and you will feel him with you when you need him the most

We are sorry for your loss. John played darts with us every Thursday night at RCL Br. 617 Dambusters and enjoyed the compitition. He was a gentleman who never hesitated to guide anyone who approached him regarding legal questions no matter how trivial. There will certainly be a void on Thursday nights. He was taken too soon and will be missed forever.
Deepest Respects,
Ron Lemieux & Sharon Butler

I first met John many years ago at the Bayview Games Club, where we both shared our passion for chess. We crossed swords many times, and win, lose or draw, his etiquette was always impeccable. My brother, Todd (also a chess player), sister Karen and I also went to Bedford Park, and Todd also attended UTS. John and I became die-hard regulars of the Saturday speed-chess events, following the location around as it moved here and there. We became quite close, and I looked forward to seeing him every Saturday afternoon at the club. Invariably, we would also discuss the goings on (mostly negative!) with the Blue Jays. Baseball was a HUGE passion of John's, rivaling even that of chess. I'm sad that he won't be here to witness the resurrection of the franchise this coming year, but if they win it all I know he'll be up there somewhere, quietly smiling and enjoying it in his special way. I would also bump into John at the more serious weekend chess tournaments. We'd say hello or share a joke between rounds, sometimes in the hall between moves. Sometimes I'd go take a look at his game, and even if it was his move, he'd take the time to look up at me and give me that warm smile of his, as if to say "Hi, thanks for looking!" I found John to be a quiet, polite, warm, funny and smart man. Whenever I asked him about how his son was doing with his sports blog, etc. he literally beamed and lit up like a Christmas tree! He was so very proud if you, John. The last time I saw John was at the Hart House Chess Tournament at the beginning of January. It was extra special to see him again since I hadn't been playing in the weekend blitz tournaments the last couple of years or so. We chatted briefly in the hall between moves, and I told him, "Maybe I'll come by the club again sometime." His response was simply, "I hope so!" The Toronto Chess scene will not be the same without you, John. R.I.P. Deepest condolences to friends and family.

I have many fond memories of Forest Hill Church as you, John, and many others in the Sunday School were growing up. Your Dad and Mom were an important part of the church family. It was a privilege to share stories, laugh and enjoy good times with him.

What can one say to ease the pain and sadness other than to know that John will be deeply missed by all who knew him. He was just a great guy, and I will truly miss our talks and his legal knowledge and family history, which he shared with me on numerous occassions. My heartfelt condolences to the family.
