John Town Obituary

John went home to his heavenly father and his angel, daughter Kara-Leigh. Also, parents Jack and Shirley Town, sister Adrianne Dee, brother Jeffrey and twin infant siblings, favourite uncle John Campbell.

Leaving to cherish his memory, Jerry (Barb), Jess, Andrea (Cliff) Brauner, nieces and nephews Chris (Keely) Town, Matt (Nadine) Town, Lisa (Brian) Klohn, Jesse (Amy) Brauner and Cherie Brauner. His aunt Nell Campbell, Los Angeles, CA, favourite cousin Pamela Gill, great nieces and nephews and his brother-from-another-mother, Larry Haller.

He was born in Vancouver, as one of the most beautiful babies ever. This carried into being an adorable toddler whose pockets jingled with coins from many admirers along the way. The family moved to Kamloops a few years later where John made the city his forever hometown. He was an electrician by trade and spent many years working on sites like Aberdeen Mall and Mica Dam. To be home more for family, he transitioned into auto sales. John was a natural, as he loved vehicles of any type (as long as they were fast) and meeting a wonderful variety of soles.

Whether it be studying the bible, photography, or one of his other passions (music, motorcycles, bicycles, cars or trucks) he developed an abundance of meaningful friendships and great relationships. His witty characteristics, smile and charm made him the go-to person, which many people loved about him. Nothing can fill that empty space that he leaves in our lives.

At John's request, there will be a celebration of life but due to Covid, it will be at a later date.

I remember John and his family from the Trans Mountain days when we were both kids. Both our dads worked for the company until they retired. John always had a smile on his face and I never heard him say a cross work about anyone. I know he will be sadly and fondly missed. On behalf of myself and the Loewen family I send our sincerest condolences. God bless.
