John Goodram

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of John Douglas Goodram, a beloved husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather and friend. John was born on January 6, 1948, in Hamilton, Ontario. He peacefully left this world at the age of 75, on Saturday, December 9, 2023. John is lovingly remembered by his children, Jennifer, Ryan (Vutan), John (Astrid) and Alexandria (Jay); his siblings, Brian (Maureen) and Kathy (Pete Reichlmayr); by nieces and nephews, Jamie (Jodie), Jennifer (Vern), BJ (Leanne) and Carly (Cam); as well as grandson, Trevor. Also, cherished by grandson, Carson, with whom he shared a special bond. John will also be missed by numerous extended family from Hamilton. John was predeceased by his wife, Kathryn; parents, John and Edith; brother-in-law, Jack Todd; and granddaughter, Hannah.

His love for travel in warm destinations such as Mexico and Belize, were where he and his wife Kathryn had spent some time. John loved to read and his thirst for knowledge was never ending. His joy for music was often shared with friends and family at various live music venues. We honor John’s memory when we look back on those afternoons while enjoying our favorite beverages together.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a private residence on February 2, 2024. Friends and family are welcome to contact Jgoodram@gmail.com  for event details.

In lieu of flowers, a donation or tribute to honor John’s memory, may be made to the Cumming School of Medicine via the University of Calgary at: https://engage.ucalgary.ca/tribute
