John Thomas McCaffery
1945 - 2020
Across the years, I will walk with you in deep green forests, on shores of sand and when our time on earth is through in heaven too, you will have my hand.
It is with great sorrow that the family of John Thomas McCaffery announces the peaceful passing of John on June 1, 2020. John grew up in Stratford, Ontario and later moved to join the Sudbury community. He is survived by his wife Patricia, daughters Melissa (Dean), Rebecca (Josh), Julie (John) and Karen (Simon) and grandchildren Hayleigh, Brandon, Declan, Maximus (Trinity), Brendon, Dorian, Marta, Deacon, Linden and Sylvan, great-grandfather to Landon and Margot. An avid fly fisherman, John enjoyed the outdoors and the canine companionship of his “Buddies” over the years. For those that knew John he always had a friendly word for everyone he encountered. His light hearted joking demeanor carried with him in his last few days. He will be missed by all who knew him.
In lieu of flowers, the family request that a donation be made to the Alzheimer’s Society or Cancer Society. Cremation services by Simple Wishes of the North, Sudbury.
