Send Flowers to the Family Offer Condolences or MemoryJOHN HARVEY NOWELL February 4, 1928 - May 11, 2003 With great sadness we announce Johns passing. Born in Bromsgrove, England and immigrated to Canada in the early 1950s, John and partner Bob Harrison were pioneers of radio paging systems in Canada. Through the years, John has enjoyed immense success in the communications business as a partner in Harrison Nowell Mobile Radio and Paging Services. Predeceased by his first wife Jean in 1982, John leaves to mourn his loving wife of 20 years, Fran, and older sister Joan in Australia with her four children, Sue, Jane, Peter and Trish and her numerous grandchildren; along with sons, Chris (Karen) and Martin (Deborah) daughter Melissa and step-daughter Maureen; stepson Rob (Georgi) four grandchildren, Scott, Brianne, Jesse and Lyle. To say that John had a full and busy life is an understatement. He took full advantage of every opportunity in life and his zest and enthusiasm will live on forever with everyone he knew. Service will be held at First Memorial Royal Oak, Victoria, BC on Thursday, May 15 at 10:00 a.m.
