John was a longtime member of St. Gerard Parish where he helped to start Bingo. John, we had 57 years together, and we created a lifetime of memories, which I will cherish forever. Dad, thank you for being a wonderful, caring person. You taught us so much and we will carry on with you in our hearts, which in turn will make us all better people. We love you from the bottom of our hearts and always will. We miss your presence already and our family home will never be the same. Special thank you to the doctors and nurses from the coronary care unit at St. Boniface Hospital. Prayers will be said on Wednesday, January 19 at 7:00 p.m. at St. Gerard Roman Catholic Church, 45 Foster St. Funeral mass will be celebrated on Thursday, January 20 at 11:00 a.m., also at the church, with Father Pierre Wood as celebrant.
