Our hearts are heavy in sharing the news that John Benjamin passed away in his sleep on the evening of May 7, 2016. He was truly our hero, our inspiration, the brightest light in our family. He is no longer in pain, he is at peace, and he lives on in our hearts. A husband, a father, a brother, an uncle, a grandfather, most recently a great grandfather and the most amazing man we've had the honour of knowing. Though this is a most difficult time we are all hanging in there with smiles on our faces at the thought of his legacy and the beautiful memories we've all shared together. We love him greatly and hope you will share in our celebrations of his life and his funeral service.
