John Moylen - 2017


John Moylen

MOYLAN, John Michael

March 12, 1947-April 18, 2017

Peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family, John fought a courageous battle with ALS. Cherished husband of 47 years to Anne (nee Ling). Proud father to Michael (Meggie), Julie, Lisa and Sarah (Marc), and the best Poppi to LaMya, Lucas, Leah and John. Brother to Chris, Judy, Rita and the late Mary. John spent his life traveling the world with his loving wife Anne, living in Washington, China and Africa, finally settling back home in Ottawa. His 50 years of service were spent protecting our country in the Navy and Foreign Affairs. A very dedicated family man, you could find him on the bench coaching or on the sidelines cheering on his children. Friends and family are welcome to celebrate John's life at McEvoy-Shields Funeral Home and Chapel, 1411 Hunt Club Road, on Friday, April 21 from 5-9 pm. A funeral service will be held on Saturday, April 22 at 11am at the same location. Our family will open the doors to our home after the service for family and friends to visit. In lieu of flowers, donations in John's memory to the ALS Society would be greatly appreciated.
