John will also be missed by his many zii, zie, cousins and his large extended Fedrigoni/Kerschbaumer family and friends.

John was born in Italy. In 1956 he and his mother immigrated to Canada to be reunited with his father. He grew up in several rural areas including Nobleton, Orangeville, Woodbridge and Kleinburg, before moving to Brampton in 1983. He worked for many years as an auto mechanic at Purolator Courier, where he formed lifelong friendships.

Affectionately known as “Grumpy” to those closest to him, John was passionate about golf and cherished his many golf trips with friends and family.

John will be remembered for his quick wit along with his generosity of spirit. John was always willing to offer free car advice, engine repairs and diagnosis whenever someone called or showed up needing assistance.

We would like to thank John’s medical team at the Brampton Civic Hospital for their kind and compassionate care.

In keeping with John’s wishes, cremation has taken place.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in John’s memory to the Canadian Cancer Society.
