John Belanger

Born and raised in Barrie Ontario, Canada. Knowing what he wanted at a young age. To become a carpenter just like his father. Learning the construction industry working his way up the ladder. Becoming a Foreman in industrial commercial contracting with the same company for thirty-two years. A family man with three incredible daughters and three precious grandchildren. A loving wife of 44 years, my soul mate. On August 31, 2014, weathering a catastrophic brain injury, from a car accident, he lost everything that day. Until he saw Tommy’s face. Tommy’s story came to him through his eyes only. With the thought this could happen to his grandchildren. Inspiring him to write this story. The thought of losing a child made him sick.
