John White

William John Barry White aka John White – At the North Bay Regional Health Centre, on Wednesday, April 23rd, 2025, in his 61st year. He was the long-time partner and best friend of Alanna Elizabeth Bruce-Payne.

Born in Toronto on May 27th, 1964, he was the son of the late Isabelle Pearl (nee Beers) White and George “Gordon” James White.

He will be fondly remembered by his siblings, uncle and many nieces, nephews and friends in the area.   Jim Mason, Connie, Gwen, Dale, Ron, Richard, Wendy and Tracy, as well as his “adoptive” family the Bruce-Paynes.  John will also be missed by his furry buddies Bear, Psycho and Meg.

John loved fixing and tinkering with all types of vehicles and fishing.  He had a wonderful sense of humour and was always willing to help where he could.

A heartfelt thanks to Dr. O’Grady, the staff and palliative care team at the NBRHC and the Blue Sky Family Health Team.

A celebration of John’s life will be held at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or Diabetes Canada.
