JOHN HOWARD
Born In: NORTH SYDNEY
Born: February 3rd, 1966
It is with deepest sadness that we, the family of John Arthur Howard, announce his sudden passing. Born in North Sydney on February 3, 1966, he was the son of Annie (Bailey) Howard and the late Thomas A. Howard.
John lived in Florence most of his life, but moved to Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta in 2001, with his family. He was a journeyman electrician with the Alberta Local 424. John loved his work and strived hard to do the best job possible and provide for his family. John was a loving father, husband, son, brother, uncle and grandfather. His grandchildren were the loves of his life. John is survived by his wife of 27 years, Laura Lee (Carey); daughter, Ashley (Scott); son, Christopher (his best friend); mother, Anne; brothers, Fred (Sharon), Lawrence (Evelyn), Kenneth (Sharon) and Greg; sisters, Judy (Jack) and Donna (Doug). Also left to mourn are his grandchildren, Chase, Hannah, Eliza and Carson; sister-in-law, Debbie (Bruce); brother-in-law, Trevor; mother-in-law, Marilyn Carey and many nieces and nephews. Cremation has taken place and a service is being held in Fort Saskatchewan, Alberta, on Tuesday, August 16, 2016, with a family service to follow at home in Florence at a later date. Donations in John’s memory may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, or a charity of one’s choice. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.jmjobesfuneralhome.com.
