It is with shock and great sadness that I heard of the passing of John. For over 23 years he attended to my pianos in my home , at my mothers home and at my music school. Less than 2 years ago I had the privilege of him refurbishing my two hundred year old pianos to a fine state that only an excellent refurbisher like John could do. They are masterpieces that he created for me...I loved to hear John play and many times he would visit my mother and play for her as he was tuning  . Condolences to his wife and children. May he rest in peace . John play for my mother in heaven she followed you there shortly afterwards. It was an honour to know you !

It was such a surprise to hear of John's passing.  He was the most honest, kind supportive man I have met in Toronto. He helped move, restore and tune our player piano when it came back from New Brunswick 18 years ago.  He will be greatly missed. Many many thanks John.  Our thoughts are with you and your family.  Sandy Smith (Toronto)

I am so sorry to hear of John's passing. He was such a kind and compassionate man. He lovingly restored my aunt's player piano and kept it in tip top shape. My sincere condolences to the family.

It comes as great surprize to hear of John's passing. He and I have had many long visits when he travelled to Minden to repair and replace parts and tune my player piano. John will be missed.
