Uncle John as he was known in our home, was a dear friend and will be sadly missed. My dad has known him for 60+ years and considers him a true friend and brother.Dad has many fond memories of him from a fishing trip with him as a young man, to dads adventures in Toronto and finally enjoying his company during his annual summer trips home. Uncle John was a great man who loved his family dearly. We offer our sincerest condolences to John & Linda and family, Wayne & Karen and family and to the Brewer Family.

To John’s Family, So very sad to hear the news of this wonderful man’s passing. I was a neighbor to Pat and Mary Keough for over twenty years, and during the last few summers I met your dad on his visits home to St. John’s. He was always ready with a smile and a chat. Always chipper and looking forward to a weekend of fishing at the cabin. He always spoke of his children and grandchildren, and if memory serves me, a couple of great great children (twins i think) I could tell that he cared greatly about his family. I am certain he will be missed by many, including myself. I hope the fish are biting in heaven, and the birch beer is flowing. Wishing you all peace and love.

To Wayne,Karen,John,Linda and families. My deepest and heartfelt condolences to you and your families. I will certainly miss his visits to NL, along with his stories and his smile. I will miss having him over for supper when he came to NL and taking him for a ride in Alvin’s maverick, which he enjoyed. He was a kind and gentle man who cared very deeply about his family. RIP Uncle John. You will always hold a special place in my heart.
