PARK, Jong-Kap (John) - Jong-Kap (John) Park passed away peacefully at Hospice in Leamington on May 18, 2021 from lung cancer.
John was born in North Korea in 1942, escaped to South Korea, and immigrated to Toronto in the late 1960's.
Within a year, he became Foreman at Domglas in Brampton and started dating the most beautiful woman he'd ever seen, Kyung-Ja (Kay).
John had a fearless entrepreneurial spirit and strong work ethic.
From Becker's in downtown Toronto, to Allan Gardens Grocery, a flower shop in Kensington Market, Finesse Cleaners, and Cornerstone Cafe (formerly Palm Trees Donut Cafe) in Guildwood, John's final labour of love.
John is loved eternally and survived by his wife Kay, his three daughters, Josephine (Stephan), Naomi, and Simmone and his four grandchildren Genevieve, Daniel Jong, Constance, and Eloise.
