John worked at Needham Funeral Service for almost 40 years, where he was affectionately known as “Crusty”. He will be especially missed by Lloyd Needham and the many directors he worked with side by side over the years. John’s knowledge of the funeral industry here in London was invaluable and he was well respected by everyone throughout London and the surrounding area. John and Martha made many friends at Pinelake Campground where they served up scrambled eggs on long weekends. John loved all animals; he will be missed by his dear Blue. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Salthaven Wildlife Rehabilitation & Education Centre or Animal Aid Centre(Cat Rescue). Friends and family will be received at Needham Funeral Service, 520 Dundas St., London on Friday May 9th from 7-9pm. Service in our chapel at 3pm Saturday May 10th, 2014. Private interment.
