He will be deeply missed by his best friend of more than 70 years and wife of 55 years, Jane (Robinson), and daughters Beth-Ann Marinacci-Green (Kevin), Melissa Fisk (Ewald), Kristin Marinacci (Allen) and grandchildren Zoe, Jay, Liam, Blake, Amon, Ben, Ella, and Isaac.

Endless list of good friends, colleagues and acquaintances with whom John shared laughs and good times.
John worked as Data Processor, then as Traffic Supervisor for Chrysler Canada. He went back later in life to get his Master’s Degree in Science in Administration. He was a lifelong member of the Knights of Columbus and volunteered for Meals on Wheels, Downtown Mission and Hospice Ticket Booth at the Casino.
John lived his life fully and passionately, enjoying spending time with family and friends. Golf, tennis, wine making, and riding his Harley were some of his favourite pastimes. John and Jane enjoyed traveling alone and with friends. “Life is Good” and “Outstanding” were his go-to expressions. John was a spiritual person who found comfort and peace in his Catholic faith and was a member of the Sacred Heart Parish community in LaSalle.
