Death notice for the town of: Coldwater, Province: Ontario
The last time I saw my brother, John, just a few weeks ago, was the first time I met John’s grandson Luca, Alisson’s son. In Johnny’s usual quiet way, I could see the love and bond between those three. It was lovely and I feel blessed to have witnessed that.
John was best man at Ted’s wedding that day and looked great dressed in the 20s theme.
Johnny was blessed to have his wife, Monica. Thank you, Monica for being such a loving wife to my brother. I know you’ll be there for Alisson and Luca as life goes on.
I’ll miss my brother very much and feel lucky to have had him in my life. John was a special man and was easy to be around. He made me, and I know many others feel quietly loved. You left a good mark on this earth, Johnny. Love you.
