Eternally in our Hearts.

It is with immense deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our strong beloved Husband and Father, John Arthur Dery on September 18, 2023. John was born in Bradford-on-Avon, England and raised in Quebec City, Canada.

Together with his devoted wife Teresa of 54 years, they settled in Scarborough, Ontario raising their close-knit family. He built his career in the pulp, paper and oil industries. He retired at 60 after working for the Texaco and Esso organizations and has most recently enjoyed the company of the newest additions to the family, his great grandsons, Justin and Ronan.

John will be lovingly remembered and forever missed by his dearest wife, Teresa, daughter Sharon (Tom and Family), son Ian (Janice), son Christopher (Maggie), brother Ray (Bernadette and Family), sister Maureen (Greg and Family), Grandchildren Nicholas (Karen), Simon (Georgia), Jane-Lauryn, William, Andrew and Noah.
