While I had only met John a few years ago, I feel like I have known John most of my life as we became very good friends in a short period of time with much in common. Only God can create the circumstances that bring people together, had it not been for termites I may never had the opportunity to meet John and Gloria and of coarse, Oliver. John and Gloria are such good, caring and loving couple, my thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time of great loss. Forever friends, Jim Mason

So suddenly we lost a great friend. While we know that Jesus is preparing a place for His children, we all feel the loss and pain of separation. To our wonderful friend Gloria we extend our love and heartfelt sympathies. 2 Corinthians 1::3-4 states: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God." We love you. Andres and Susana Prichard

John was a good man and a good friend, as well as an outstanding president of the Tyrrell Historical Library Association. Whatever he did, he gave 100%. I loved his friendly grin, and I'll miss him very much.

To the family: May the God of all comfort continue to strengthen the family as the days, weeks, months and years passes. Be assured that those who are “sleeping in death” God keeps in his memory because they are precious in his eyes. My sincerest condolences. John 6:40 and Revelation 21:3-5.
