John (Jan) Van Hell November 16, 1931 – April 19, 2020
It is with great sadness, but also with rejoicing that we announce the passing of John (Jan) Van Hell, at the age of 88 years, who went to be with the Lord his Saviour into Glory on Sunday, April 19, 2020. Peacefully with his family near, he passed away at the Welland Hospital.
Beloved husband of Janny Van Hell (Huizing) for over 63 years. Dear father of Rosa (Harry) Vander Kuylen, Ron, Bruce, Jane Grass, Tim (Debbee), and Sharon (Brad) Meinen.
Much loved grandfather of 16 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren.
Predeceased by his daughter Alice (1993), his grandson Jabin Meinen (2008) and daughter in law Pat (2019).
He is also survived by his favourite sister Jean Vogelaar and sister in law Gerrie Van Hell.
Predeceased by his parents Ruth and Alberta (Kraaij) Van Hell, brothers, brother in law and sisters in law, Wouter, Steve & Diny, Tony, Art Vogelaar and Roger & Eva.
Also remembered by Janny’s siblings: Nely Huizing, Grace Vander Wekken, Mina Slomp, Bert Huizing, Rose Kuizenga, Ann Van Dorp, Frank & Maria Huizing and Dienie & Arie Schalk.
Dad’s sense of humour and loving teasing will be missed by all. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date where we will be able to share our fond memories of him.

Private family burial will take place at the Riverside Cemetery on April 22, 2020 in Wellandport, ON.
