John ANDREWS Obituary

JOHN P. ANDREWS It is with heavy hearts and cherished memories that we announce the passing of John on Saturday, April 4, 2020 in his 92nd year. Cherished husband of 62 years to Suad (Numan). Loving father to Susan (Anthony), Basil, Sarah (Dan) and Jason. Grandfather to Dorothy, Michael, Kate, Luca and Maxine. Johnny was an original, larger than life personality that touched the lives of all he came into contact with. A family man, protector, provider, entrepreneur, trailblazer, proud Canadian, while never missing a game of his alma mater, the USC Trojans. A special thanks to his private caregiver Martine to whom we are so grateful and all the medical staff at Humber River Hospital. A private interment at Holy Cross Cemetery will be held on April 7, 2020. In lieu of flowers, in these difficult for many Covid-19 times, please consider donating to CAMH or Canadian Red Cross, in John's honour. Online condolences may be found at www.catholic-cemeteries.com.

John was an inspiration to me as a young engineering starting out in a scary and aggressive world. He became my mentor for many years and we spoke often about world events, business ventures and investments. My success in business and family has been largely due to applying many of John's suggestions and "tips". I learned a lot from him and it was not all in the engineering field. I can honestly say that he was a top salesman and sold his solution ideas rather than goods. I shall miss John and will never forget him until we join forces again. Rest in peace my friend and keep a warm spot on that couch for me. Orlando A. Negrin, York, PA, USA

Mrs. Andrews and Family
I am so sorry for your loss. I will never forget the time I spent working with John and every thing that he taught me. Also to all of you for making me feel part of the family when I was on my own in the city. He was a great man and will never be forgotten.
With my deepest sympathy and condolences.
Bob
