We are sad to announce that on April 12, 2026, at the age of 87, John Holder (Orangeville, Ontario) passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of John Holder to pay them a last tribute.

As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let his loved ones carry forward the torch of his memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of his love and the brilliance of his spirit.
