John Renford COULTER

JOHN RENFORD COULTER Passed away peacefully on January 6, 2022 at 61 years of age surrounded by the love of his three sisters after a ten month journey following a stroke. Beloved son of the late Robert and Gloria Coulter. Loving and devoted brother of Shelley Allen (Reg), Debbie Wilkinson (Drew), and Kim Coulter (David). Cherished Uncle John to his six nieces Stephanie and Sarah; Kimberly and Courtney; Beth and Kate. Great-uncle to nine great-nieces, nephews and one on the way. John will be sadly missed by his cat, Rocco. John was born in Windsor, raised in Kingsville and educated at St. Clair College and University of Windsor. Upon graduation, he moved to Toronto where he developed a lifelong love of the big city. He settled in Cabbagetown where he bought and renovated several homes over 20 years. He worked at various positions in marketing for Roy Thompson Hall, Bell and Rogers. Later in life, John was self-employed in real estate, and design including decorating, painting and landscaping. Most recently, John found a passion supporting families through his work at Morley Bedford Funeral Home. Throughout his life, John developed lasting friendships everywhere he went. He had an ability to bring people together through his kind nature, sense of humour, love of travel and joy of entertaining. He will be forever missed by his friends in Toronto, Chatham and Barbados.
