He was a fundamental part of the success of the St. Marys Cement Company, having taken the reins from his father and grandfather before him. John, being a very community minded man, was actively involved with many charitable organizations including the St. Marys Memorial Hospital Foundation and the Ontario Hospital Association. He was an integral part in founding and building the Kensington Foundation. All who knew and loved John will feel a tremendous sense of loss, but also a tremendous sense of gratitude for the life he shared. The family would like to say a very special thank you to all the caregiving “angels” who tirelessly worked around the clock to ensure John had the very best quality of care.A Memorial Service will be conducted at ST.
