Great Grandfather to Crew, Kai, Lennox, Cooper and Russell.  With sincere appreciation to his caregivers, Frances, Margie, Mary and Junaida, who took such excellent care of him in his later years.

John lived a full life, practicing law for over half a century and finding time to enjoy travelling, art and antique collecting, and time at the family cottage with his beloved Malkah and family.

Our family would like to thank Dr. Mark Silverman and Marilyn Brownlee for all their wonderful care, compassion, and expertise over the years while caring for our Dad.

Thank you as well to Dr. Ben Tilley, Dr. Alex Kumachez, and Dr. Dasilva from Toronto General Hospital who took care of our Dad the last few weeks.
