Every time I look at this picture of my Uncle John, I see him in his absolute best light. He was, in my opinion, the greatest solo dancer of the family, and it was hard not to enjoy his company. 

I miss you greatly today, Uncle John! Happy Birthday ❤️

I am saddened to hear that you have left us all a lone! I am, however,  happy that we have met and had a great time and a wonderful conversation! You were a wonderful person! You will be remembered! I also offer my condolences to the family members! 

My condolences to the family especially Aunt Norma. I remember how he made me laugh so hard with some of his stories.  

Dear Aunt Norma and Family
I’m so sorry to hear the passing of John… You are in my thoughts and prayers … Thankfully Family and stories get us through these sad times.... 😓RIP 🙏

It is with great sadness that I learned of the passing of my brother John. It hurts to think I’ll never hear his voice again. Or hear him call me Tulips again. To have one more visit, one more laugh.
John was the fourth of eight living children born to Allan and Norma. He was born in Hamilton, Ontario and moved west in his 20’s. We didn‘t see much of John over the years but some of the most memorable recent visits included the times when sister Barbara and brother Mark Sr visited John in BC; when John attended Mark Jr’s wedding in Calgary in 2018; and the last time we saw John when he vacationed at my home in Ontario for a few weeks in May, 2019, to visit with our mother. He was so
happy and we had a lot of fun and laughter together. He was a conversationalist and was never at a loss for words. It was truly a pleasure to have him visit and we missed him very much when he left.
John is survived by his mother Norma Anderson, siblings Roger Calder (Bev), Thomas Calder (Carol), William Calder, Barbara Savage (late Steven), Scott Calder (Doreen), Mark Calder Sr (Paula), Margaret Pyett (late Daryl) and many, many nieces and nephews. He is predeceased by his father Allan (1994) and
sister Anne (1950). John was a loving uncle to his nieces and nephews and it was pure joy to watch them together.
John suffered much of his life, both physically and mentally but he loved and was loved. And he is now resting peacefully.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. Matthew 11:28-30

I love you uncle John. I couldn't have been any happier having you at my wedding. I wish we saw more of each other, and I'll always miss you. 

Special thanks to Glenhaven Memorial Chapel for taking good care of John after his passing.
