John & I grew up together, we had so much fun, he would teach me how to be bad at the dinner table, kicking my leg and bugging me. Over the years we had many laughing fests. Importantly, he was instrumental in helping my parents move out of their home into seniors residence. For that I really thank him and his wife they did a lot of work. I am really sad and shocked to learn of his passing, our family is shrinking and we've lost touch. Hopefully, we can change that. Love Jo-Anne - Posted by: Jo-Anne MacLellan (Cousin) on: Oct 07, 2023
