Dear Bex, Tim, Rachel, Ben and Tom. Sending much love on this difficult day at the end of a difficult year. I am sure John would have you all cracking a joke and trying to find the positive in the day.
Lots of love from Switzerland,
Sophie

After knowing John for fifty years, we shall miss many things about him , his kindness, his helpfulness, but especially his humour and jollity. We once remarked to him that if ever we needed cheering the first person in all the world we would call would be him. He was above all our loyal and constant friend, whom we shall miss very much.

God bless John - As I raise a glass to you and remember your great sense of humour I say farewell with an accounting pun:

“There are three types of accountants: those who can count and those who can’t.”

I never spent a moment with John where we didn’t end up laughing together-we truly shared the same sense of humour. The Wednesday Afternoon social club is now reunited together - John & Sam drinking whiskey while Wendy & Di will be catching up on all the latest gossip. Our families eternally joined together by their love.❤️
