John Terence Bootle, 75, passed suddenly on July 9th, 2022 at his home in Jacksontown, New Brunswick.    It is with profound sadness we make this announcement.

John was the son of the late  Frederick and Pamela (Souch) Bootle; John is survived by three daughters, Tracy Bootle, Tammy Bootle, and Trixie Bootle; Grandchildren, Sydney Hausen, Skyanne Bootle, Jessie Bootle, Karley Bootle, and Ethan Angel. Brothers Dwight Bootle and Dave Bootle; family Across the Pond; Nieces, Nephews, Cousins.

Besides his parents, John was predeceased by his first wife, Judith L. Bond, second wife Cindy Lou Ambeault, and brother Fred.

John is remembered by all who knew him to be creative, intelligent, and at times stubborn to a fault.  Everything he pursued from love to loathing was executed with great passion.

John enjoyed lengthy, intelligent conversations with everyone, and with an immense distrust in all things 'government,' he could talk for many hours on this subject alone.

Inspired by The Beatles, music was his true inner passion.  This prompted him to make his own guitar in his early youth, strumming quietly in his room to avoid alerting his Father (who fancied he become a Doctor over being a musician.)

John enjoyed loving his animals, most recently his two dogs Charlie and Ally who provided him with the strength to carry on through the death of his wife and then through illness.

He chose a colorful life and, in the end, he discovered God in his own interpretation of it. He lived every moment  HIS way choosing to leave this earthly realm in the same manner.  Rest now,  Enjoy the music of the Universe until we meet again.
