John James Cave was a remarkable, joyful soul. He was a Farmer first and foremost but also ran his gravel trucking company during the early years. He operated a Dairy Farm in Maple, Ontario for many, many years. He owned and subdivided a part of the Maple Community long before it became what is today. He later owned a beautiful 200 acre farm in Bethany, Ontario where his white charolais cattle could be seen grazing. John could fix anything from a child’s toy to the bearings on a combine.
He was a charitable man who helped many begin in their endeavours. He was a loving son, a wonderful husband, the finest brother, a cherished Stepdad, a Loving Grandfather and Great Grandfather and the MOST Beautiful always seen laughing and smiling, UNCLE JOHN!!!
