It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear husband, father, brother, uncle and friend on November 8, 2021, at the age of 87 years. Born in Santa Barbara, Açores. John was survived by his loving wife of 52 years, Margarida Dacamara; He will be forever remembered and greatly missed by his son, John and daughters, Carmel, and Ellen and son in law Marshall. His passions in his life were his family, work and religion.
At 22 years old, John arrived in Winnipeg, Canada in the spring of June 1956. On that Tuesday, he bought his work boots and clothes and started work on the Wednesday morning and from there, worked loyally for CN Rail for 33 years building the railways and retired as a respected foreman in 1989. His strong work ethic, dedication and loyalty for his career has been passed down to his children.
On April 12, 1969 John married Margarida and shortly thereafter they came to live in Winnipeg together and had three children. John devoted his life to his family, food was always on the table, a warm home and would always be willing to drive and pick up his children to their first jobs, day or night, and never complained.
He was a devout Roman Catholic and he will be always remembered by many parishioners at various churches, praying with his rosary in hand and always willing to donate to many religious causes.
Flowers may be delivered to Bardal Funeral Home. Donations in John’s memory may be made to any Catholic charity organization.
A visitation will take place Monday, November 15, 2021, from 6:00 pm – 9:00 pm. A funeral service will be celebrated 11:00 am Tuesday, November 16, 2021 at Bardal Funeral Home, 843 Sherbrook Street, with interment to follow at Assumption Cemetery.
