John Hannah
March 10, 2025
It is with great sadness that the family of John Hannah announces his passing at the age of 90 on Monday, March 10, 2025 peacefully in his sleep at Southbridge Long Term Care London.
Born in Scotland, John immigrated to Canada in 1964, bringing with him his three children and later welcoming a fourth child in his new home. He embraced his new life in Canada while keeping his Scottish roots close to his heart.
Cherished husband of the late Christine Hannah. Dear father of John Hannah (Colleen), Keith, Karen Crawford (Craig), and Susan MacDonald (Mike). Proud grandfather of Alissa Barbosa (Keegan), Sarah John (Johnte) and Amanda Crawford (Brad).
John had a great love for travel and cherished the times spent revisiting his beloved Edinburgh, Scotland homeland as well as exploring the beautiful landscapes of Hawaii and enjoying numerous cruises.
John’s later years were affected by Dementia and skin cancer, but he continued to be a source of love and inspiration for his family. He will be remembered for his warmth, sense of humor, story telling and making people laugh.
A private family service will take place at Mount Pleasant Cemetery. In lieu of flowers please donate in memory of John to the Alzheimer Society, Southwest Partners.
Rest in peace, John. Your memory will live on in the hearts of those who loved you.

My grandpa had a big heart and a great sense of humor, always making us laugh and feel loved. He found joy in the simple things - boston creams, honey crullers, and a hot cup of tea or coffee. Though he’s gone his laughter, wisdom, and warmth live on in our hearts. We’ll remember him in every shared joke, every sweet treat, and every moment of kindness. Love you grandpa, you will always be missed but never forgotten.

In loving memory of my dad, who live a full 90 years and left a lasting impression on everyone he met. Born in Scotland, he carried the the love for his homeland with him throughout his life and enjoyed visiting Scotland with my mom. He wasn't just a man of one place; he had a wanderlust that led him and my mom on many adventures. Their cruises together, many trips to Hawaii were some of the happiest times of his life. My father was a man of many passions-his love for his family, his joy for travel, his ability to make people laugh, and his generous spirit will never be forgotten. I will carry these memories of him with us forever, and his legacy will continue in every smile we share, every joke we tell, and every adventure we take. Rest in peace, Dad. You were truly one of a kind. Love you forever Susan and Mike xoxoxo
