John Allan Webb
1955-2020
Webb, John Allan – of Havre
Boucher, Antigonish Co. peacefully, with his wife and daughters by his
side, it is with much sadness that we announce John’s passing at the
QE II Health Sciences Centre, VG Site, Halifax on Wednesday, February
26th, 2020 at the age of 64, after a battle
with cancer.
John was a son of Teresa Bonvie-Webb and the late Berk Webb.
Born in Antigonish on September 13th, 1955 and raised in Havre
Boucher, John was on the water for almost 40 years as the Captain of
the Bay Boys III. John enjoyed playing cards, especially with his
mother and helping his loving wife at the Denture Clinic. John was
always lending a hand to anyone in need and his laugh was contagious.
John always found a way to tease anyone he met and had a special way
with children and the elderly alike.
After leaving the Village, John moved to Calgary in the late
70’s and worked as a machinist. John later moved home in the
early 80’s to take over the family fishing license. It was
the best decision of his life because he then met the woman of his
dreams, Marilyn.
John was an avid Maple Leafs fan and loved to sit and chat
about the game. He also enjoyed preparing many family meals, in
particular his seafood chowder and travelling with Marilyn by his
side.
He is survived by his loving wife, Marilyn (Anderson),
daughters, Johna (Matthew) Calgary; Jade (Colton) Wood, Havre Boucher;
and grandson Tanner John Allan, who he deeply cherish. Sisters,
Christine (Tom) Diggins, Mulgrave; Judy (Luigi) Addorisio, Edmonton;
Martina (Rene) LeVangie, Sherwood Park; Noella (Bruce) Ross, Sherwood
Park; Bernita (Richie) MacLeod, Sherwood Park and brother, Stephen
(Sandra) Webb, Havre Boucher; brother-in-laws, Tommy Anderson, Havre
Boucher and Eddie (Lucy) Lee, Newfoundland. John was predeceased by
his brother, Willie Webb. John also leaves behind many loving nieces
and nephews.

Boucher from 12-4 and 7-9 p.m. Funeral mass will be held 2
p.m. Monday, March 2nd in St. Paul’s Roman
