BARRATT, John Philip - Sadly, John passed away on February 15, 2019, in the Mississauga Hospital in the presence of his younger son, Jordan, after a hard fought battle with bladder cancer.
John was born in Trail, British Columbia, on August 12, 1944 to Jean and Phil Barratt.
He had one much loved older sister, Nancy Whitham, who visited him from Calgary just two weeks ago.
John was married to Jennifer Rodgers whom he had met at university in 1970. In 1973, they moved to Mississauga from Vancouver when John was transferred.
They had two sons, Jeffrey Michael and Jordan Alexander. Both are CPAs, no doubt influenced by their father.
Our family was blessed with the arrival of Sloane and Will, born to Jeff and his wife, Tara Douglas, as well as Emily and Reid, Jordan and Heather's children. John loved his grandchildren and they loved him – a relationship that benefitted each one of them.
A celebration of John's life will be held at The Credit Valley Golf and Country Club on Saturday, March 2nd from 2 p.m. until 5 p.m. If so desired, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society may be made in John's memory.
