ERB,
John▼
Edwin▼ (13 September 1932-31 July, 2005)
Reverend Canon, Executive Director, Anglican Foundation
"We have lots of love, Friendship, family; we are blessed." These
were some of John's last words, given through a wonderful smile,
as his magnificent brain was being ravaged by the Creutzfeldt-Jakob
Disease. John was born in Kitchener, Ontario, to the late Irvin
and Sally ERB (née
MEYSCHEIN.) He will always be missed by his
adored children Nicholas and Katie, his wife
Didy▼ (née
BRADISH)
of 29 years, his loving sisters and brothers-in-law Cathie and
John HOWARD, Hornby Island, British Columbia, and Margie and
Bob CARR,
Hamilton. 'John The Giant' was a special uncle to Stephen
HOWARD and Rhonda
SPENCE, Emily
HOWARD and Alex
LAVIGNE; Tom
HOWARD and Landys
KLYNE; Mary
HOWARD, Stewart, Duncan, Will and
Angus MURRAY; Sally
HOWARD, Jim and Tommy
HAMAGUCHI; Sarah
CARR
Tim CARR and Kate
FEIGHTNER; Pat
CARR, Nadine
HEINTZ and Oliver
CARR; and friend David
HUGHES.
His▼ many
ERB and Meyschein family
cousins love him and will miss him.
A passionate Canadian, John was a leader, Anglican Priest, teacher,
traveller, camper and actor. Until his late teens John was a
member of Trinity United, the
ERB family's church, where he grew
up in the Sunday School. He attended 'Young People's' both there
and at Saint John the Evangelist Anglican Church. When he returned
after working for a year in England, he joined the confirmation
class at Saint John. Thus began his journey to become an Anglican
priest. Graduating from the Kitchener Public School system and
Wilfred Laurier University, he received his early theological
training from Trinity College. He continued graduate studies
in later years in Boston, Virginia and Jerusalem.
John's ministry began at St. Aidan's in 1965. In 1967 his strong
identification with young people led him to a truly successful
period as Director of Youth for the Church of England, both in
Guyana, S.A. and then in the United Kingdom..
John returned to Canada with Didy in December 1973 and continued
his ministries, first at Grace Church on the Hill, then at St.
Luke's East York. In 1981 he became Rector of St. Michael and
All Angels, where he embraced all, and many saw him as more than
a pastor. He retired from St. Michael's in 1997. For the past
seven years John's energetic leadership has been devoted to the
Anglican Foundation of Canada, a work he loved. It enabled him
to travel the length and breadth of this country, often visiting
parishes in small communities, and as in all of his previous
work, met wonderful dedicated people and established lasting
Friendships and respect everywhere.
Throughout his working life John participated on many Boards
and Committees focusing on community outreach, and has helped
develop programs such as Out Of The Cold, Street Haven for battered
women and Christie Gardens, and has worked to encourage interfaith
ministry. His robust leadership has been recognized and honoured
in many ways including the 125th Anniversary Medal of Canada
Member and former Chaplain, Order of Saint John Ambulance, Serving
Brother - Saint John of Jerusalem; Chaplaincy appointments to The
Royal Society of Physicians and Surgeons, The Canadian Club of
Toronto, The Benchers and The Order of St. Lazarus.
His personal passions are his family, his ministry, the theatre,
ballet, opera, the family cottage at Oliphant and the Taize Retreat
in France.
During his hospital confinement John and his family were enormously
moved by those many Friends, acquaintances and co-workers old
and new, who visited during his last days. Literally, they came
by the hundreds from all spectrums of society to reminisce, renew
Friendships and offer their love and support. Nothing could have
made more visible the lasting impact John had on so many lives.
We will always be grateful for the kindness and incredible care
given to John and his family by all the caregivers in the Palliative
Care Unit at St. Michael's Hospital.
In lieu of flowers, please join John in his living legacy for
theological education through his work at the Anglican Foundation
of Canada (80 Hayden Street, Toronto, M4Y 3G2), or to the charity
of your choice.
Visitation will be at the Morley Bedford Funeral Home, 159 Eglinton
Ave. W., Toronto, between Yonge and Avenue Rd., 1: 00 to 4:00
p.m. and 7: 00 to 9:00 p.m. Friday, August 5th.
The funeral will be held at St. James Cathedral, King St. E.
at Church Street, at 11: 00 a.m. Saturday, August 6th. A service
preceding interment in Woodland Cemetery will be held in Kitchener
at the Church of Saint John The Evangelist, Water Street, north of
King Street, on Monday, August 8 at 11: 30 a.m. Reception at 10:30
a.m. in the Church Hall.
