John attended school on Barrie Island and graduated at the age of 14, after
which he worked on farms and in the bush, until 1939, when he bought a farm.

had quite a remarkable career, having won 34 elections and serving 45 years

for 35 years, and along with Renie

Flower of Hope School, which he said was his most rewarding effort. John was

in many capacities on the board of the church. John also enjoyed fishing and

LANKTREE, who passed away on July 29, 2000 after a courageous
battle with brain cancer. She is sadly missed by her sisters Lois and Mary and
brother, Harry. To our beloved, we will always remember what cancer cannot do...
It cannot cripple Love,
Shatter Hope,
It cannot corrode Faith,
Destroy Peace
It cannot kill Friendship,
Suppress Memories,
It cannot silence Courage
Or invade the Soul.
It cannot steal Eternal Life
It cannot conquer the Spirit.
A sister's love, her goodness, her caring and her wisdom
is a legacy of love that always lives on.
It will live on through us and we shall cherish it always.
