Our sympathy to Leta and Dave and other family members on the passing of John.
Pat went to school with John & Leta in Dundalk. The Lambertus kids went to PEPS where John was principal & John has been our pleasant neighbour for many years. He’ll be missed.

Cynthia and I would like to express our condolences to Leta, Gary, Larry and David at this time of the passing of John. As a colleague of his for the past 42 years, I always respected him. He was also a dedicated LION for many years. Our prayers are with you at this time. We’ll all miss him at the Tuesday coffee at Tim’s!

To a very good man & special teacher. I was most fortunate to have John as my grade 8 teacher at PEPS. Many years later Marilyn & I were again fortunate in having John as the Principal of PEPS when our two children were students.

A wonderful person. We need more education leaders like John. After he retired I bumped into John & his friend Don Richardson having coffee a few times. In my opinion these were the two stars of the Dufferin Education System.
Sincere Condolence’s to the Loughheed family.

I had Mr. Lougheed as as a Principal in Princess Elizabeth Public School and then my children had him at Parkinson Centennial Public school. He will be truly missed. Rest in Peace Mr. Lougheed.

Our sincere condolences go out to Leta @ Family on the passing of John.

Our condolences to John’s family. He was a very kind man and a true Lion. We will miss him a great deal.

Hello to John Lougheed’s family. My grade 7 teacher. My grade 8 teacher. The principal at Princess Elizabeth Public School. John Lougheed was fearsome to me as a child… until he smiled. And that smile took away the fear of the stern ‘boss’ of the school.

John listened patiently in 1960 when I made a plea for girls, as well as boys, in grade 8 to be responsible for hoisting the flag each morning outside in the school garden. He listened patiently when I came up for an idea for the senior elementary students who ‘hung around’ during recess to take out a net and volleyball and rotate through being net holders while we played.

He understood, I think, and he was gracious. However, feminism was at its beginning and while the senior students got to play volleyball outside even in the winter, the girls did not get to participate in the flag raising rotation.

I have his signature on several report cards. I have the memory of the man in my soul.

You have laid to rest a human being who influenced many in a positive way. I’m sorry I didn’t know about his funeral until this afternoon.

~Donna

I remember being in Parkinson School while Mr. Lougheed was the principal. He was the greatest person ever. He had a wonderful smile but you knew he ment business. He was one of the best role models any kid could look up to. Its sad to hear his passing. I’ll never forget you! You taught me so much. 🙁 Condolences to his family and friends. Another angel taken back.

So sad to learn of Mr. Lougheed’s passing..I think he left a positive impression on all of us who were fortunate enough to have known him. My thoughts are with your family.

Gary, Lynne, Derek and Katrina
It’s so nice to see all the condolences from former students, what a positive mark John left on so many lives. My kids attended Parkinson Centennial Public School and we were always welcomed by his smile, and his pleasant, friendly manner. He was a kind and approachable man, and people from all walks of life will miss him. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with you all at this time and may you find peace and comfort in knowing that he is remembered with so much love and respect

Mr Lougheed was my public school principal at Parkinson Centennial Public school in the late 70’s & early 80’s. I will always remember him as a kind, fair & friendly man. The twinkle in his eyes when he smiled, always put me at ease. He was compassionate, caring & always showed a deep concern for his students. I’ve thought of him fondly, many times over the years. My condolences & deepest sympathy to his family at this difficult time.

To the Lougheed family, please accept my sincerest condolences on John’s passing. John was Principal of PEPS during my years there as well as my Grade 8 teacher during the 1962-63 school year and was a very strong positive influence on me. He was a great educator and a fine person.
