JohnBARBERIt is with the deepest sadness that we announce the sudden but peaceful passing of John Barber, with his family by his side, at Leicester Royal Infirmary on Monday 17th August 2026, aged 87 years.
John was a devoted dad to Martin and Sharon, and a loving father-in-law to Marian and John. He was a much-loved grandad to Michelle, Scott and Liam, grandad-in-law to Kelly, Louise and great-grandad to Monica, George and Avelinn.
John is now reunited with his beloved wife, Barbara, and his much-loved son, Neil.
His love, kindness and quiet strength touched us all, and the memories we shared with him will be treasured always. He will be missed more than words can say and will remain forever in our hearts.
A funeral service to celebrate and remember John's life will take place at South Leicester Crematorium on 9th September 2026 at 1:00pm.
Family flowers only, if desired donations for Motor Neurone Disease Association & Bowel Cancer UK.
