I have very fond memories of John from when I ran my business at Brickhills. When John purchased the property he kindly allowed me to carry on as a tenant . John was a good friend , always happy to help others when he could .
Sending our deepest sympathies to Trixie and family.
You will be greatly missed John.
Rest in Peace .
Mel and Sue Twilley.

He was a nice guy, I first met him in 1992 when I went self employed and he put a lot of work my way. Nothing was too much trouble for him, he would help people out and lend them anything. He was one of life’s characters. I will remember him. Kevin Burlinson.

What a nice bloke he got me and my brother into working with spanner’s on his buses and cars in his garage with his dad Ken. Spent many hours washing his buses. He took us both to school as he did many a kid my lad is 24 there isn’t many people could say he took father and son to school. Not bad when he worked at the steelworks and then built up his coach business he will be missed. Martyn, Ben & Ian Lingard
