Passed away peacefully on February 3rd, in his 80th year. He shared over 50 years of marriage with his wife, Jennifer, and was a loving father to four children and a proud grandfather. John spent his career as a teacher and will be remembered for his sense of humour and his love for animals, gardening, and sitting by a bonfire with a cup of java.
John also devoted his time in service to the church through the food ministry and Bible study, where his kindness and faith were felt by many.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Friday, February 27th at 2:00 p.m. at Newcastle Fellowship Baptist Church.
We give thanks for John’s life and find comfort in knowing he is now at peace in God’s loving care. He will be dearly missed and forever loved.
