It is with sadness we announce the sudden passing of John McCash, aged 53. On May 18, 2025, after a mercifully short battle with pancreatic cancer, and surrounded by family, John was taken by his Heavenly Father after receiving the final sacraments of the Holy Church. John was fearless and unapologetic in his drive to reach unsaved souls for the Kingdom of God, and was often found evangelizing on the streets of Toronto carrying his cross. He was also courageous in his fight for the dignity of all human life from conception to natural death. His last words were to his friends to "take up the cross." John is survived by his wife, Dinorah, and his four children, Joseph, Patrick, Daniel and Monica. He is also survived by his parents, Dan and Muriel, as well as his siblings, Paul and Emma (Mike). Many thanks to the countless friends who came to offer support and comfort during his last weeks, their generosity went above and beyond, and we are deeply touched by the outpouring of love. As expressions of sympathy, and in lieu of flowers, donations to Shifra Homes or Campaign Life Coalition would be greatly appreciated by the family. May he rest in Peace. Visitation to be held Tuesday, May 27, from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m., at Assumption Funeral Home, 6933 Tomken Road, Mississauga. Funeral Mass to be held Wednesday, May 28, at 10:30 a.m., at St. Joseph Parish, 5440 Durie Rd, Mississauga. Online condolences may be made at
