Dear Delia, Elizabeth, Tracy, Mateus, Alexandra, Lia, Zilda, and Nivia, it is with great sadness to know that John ( Joao ) has passed. We have very warm and happy memories of John. John often shared with us his memories of his family, his life in Portugal, the dogs that would run and chase rabbits in the fields, his early years in Canada, working at Teperman, his construction driving work, and how he loves his family. John and our Cassidy became instant friends and always enjoyed each other's company and attention. On one occasion John and Delia looked after Cassidy for a brief encounter. Cassidy was excited to be with John and Delia, and then Cassidy realized that he wasn't with us in their home. Then John reluctantly accompanied Cassidy back to our home. When Cassidy would bark and run towards people while on his lead, John would sternly say, "I'll kick his ass!" John is a good friend to us. We will miss John. God bless John and God bless all of you.
