John PYE Obituary
PYE, John
Dear stepson of Connie Pye of Burnley, Lancashire, UK, and dear friend of David Mulholland and dear friend of and to so many over the years at St. Thomas Anglican Church (Huron Street), where he was head of the Acolyte Guild at St. Andrew's by the Lake where he served so ably as a lay assistant along with the Mission to Seafarers in the Port of Toronto. His intelligence, wit, charm and at times caustic honesty were all hallmarks of a good life nobly lived with integrity, grace and always a sense of fun. John died March 4th, 2003 – 4 days after his 76 birthday. His passing is a great sadness to so many – but his life is greatly celebrated and an occasion for Thanksgiving. Solemn Requiem Mass at St. Thomas Anglican Church (383 Huron Street, south of Bloor), at 11:30 a.m., followed by a reception. Donations to Mission to Seafarers.
