JOHN DAVID FARRISH

February 16, 2023

John David Farrish of Ripley, youngest son of Alexander (Bud) and Marjorie Farrish, died Feb. 16, 2023, at the South Bruce Grey Health Centre, Kincardine, at the early age of 66. He is preceded by his sister, Betty; and brother, Sandy; and survived by his sister, Deanna; and brother, Robert. John lived his entire life in Huron and Bruce counties, and worked at the Bruce Nuclear plant, but his first love was farming. He raised cattle, had a passion for motorcycles and always approached every situation with an irreverent sense of humour. He will be dearly missed by his extended family, including his sister-in-law, Noma Farrish; nephews, David and Mark Farrish, Bill and Peter Sawchuk, Jeff and Scott Thibodeau, and Ken, Steven and Nancy Moran. There will be a celebration of John's life in the spring. Interment, Kintail Cemetery. Donations to the Heart and Stroke Foundation in John’s honour are appreciated; arrangements entrusted to the MacKenzie and McCreath Funeral Home, Ripley.
