Family of Mr. John Millen
My sincere sympathy to you, Maria and family, at your great loss.
I certainly will miss your husband's cheery manner and friendly teasing. He always brightened my day whenever I met him at Church functions.

He leaves to mourn his ever-loving wife of 53 years, Maria Sofranko; his children Katrina (Salvatore), Jennifer (Mario), Andrew, Tracey (Roland); his grandchildren Emily, Oliver, Chloe, Leo; his sister Helen, and many other family and friends.

The very best for you all.

John will be missed by me. He was of great help to me in Yellowknife as we traded historical info on Asbestos & Danville. My mom & dad were always happy to get a visit from him either at their home in Danville or Wales Home. I also enjoyed hearing of his time at the Discovery Mine, north of Yellowknife. I hope someday we will have a mine museum here where I will make sure he gets credit for donating a couple of gold samples from Discovery.
