My siscere condolences to John's family. John and I were classmates at PDHS grades 7 through 12. I always considered John a great friend. He always acted the gentleman but was not above being a clown if the situation required it in class. Unlike myself he was a consumate sportsman. As many do we lost touch after school graduation. I will always hold fond memories of John.

Dearest Lynn. Jake & Dan, and families.Today marks the 19th anniversary of Elizabeth's death, and you have the sincere Love and sympathy of Jason, Damon & Aaron and their wives and families.We cherish the times we had together, especially the 'Barnaby family' dinners in your home in Kenebacassis Park, where we got 'caught-up' with each other, told stories, and laughed 'til the tears ran.We know that John loved life, and adored his family, who adored him in return.He achieved so much in this short life, but his greatest achievement was the building of a great family where Love is ever present, and that will be your comfort in the days and years to come. All my Love, Harrison.

Lynn, Jake, Dan and family, please accept my deepest condolences. John was my colleague in Revjet Canada. He did great things for all of our small community, helped us to move and settle in Saint John, created wonderful working conditions. But the most important John was more then a colleague, he was my dear friend with whom we shared lots of common interests: skiing, cars, motorcycles. Oh those talks about the bikes! John even helped me to find a great one! He was a great friend and an example for all of us what every Canadian should be. I proud that I knew John for all this years - he will be missed.

Oh dear Lynn, it is with such sadness that I read John's obituary. Marilyn (Mitchell) Robblee contacted me to tell me. John was such a kind and good man. It said that you had been married 43 years. I remember being at your wedding and knowing that you and John would be happy forever, and now forever has come. Together you have 2 amazing sons and even grandchildren. I expect they will be a comfort to you as you go on with your life. Please know that you are in my thoughts.
