WILKINSON: John Wayne

January 16, 2022 By 5 Condolences

WILKINSON: John Wayne

Sadly we have to say goodbye to our beloved husband, father & grandfather. John leaves behind his wife Ruth Ann of 53 years and children Tammy (Derek) Clifford, Kim (Todd) Larkin and Ryan (Mandy) Wilkinson. John will be sadly missed by his 8 grandchildren; Jenna & Dani Clifford, Kyle, Josh & Jacob Larkin and Tyler Wilkinson and Braydon & Hayley Mossey. John was predeceased by his parents Jim & Myrtle Wilkinson, brother Ron, sister Betty (Bert) Vernaleken. John was an avid woodcarver, crafter and enjoyed doing the Goderich Flea Market for many years. He loved the great outdoors, fishing and sightseeing. Thanks to Dr. Stan Spacek and the nursing staff at Alexandra Marine and General Hospital for their care and compassion.
Due to Covid restrictions, a private family time of reflection has been held. A public graveside service will be held in the spring at Maitland Cemetery and will be announced at a later date. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations to the Alzheimer Society gratefully acknowledged. Friends may sign the book of condolences at www.mccallumpalla.ca

    I knew John from his days at the Goderich Flea Market and would visit with him most Sundays. He was such a kind and gentle man and I always enjoyed our little chats. My sincere sympathy goes out to his wife and family.
