It was extremely sad news when the phone rang, and I was informed of JJ's passing, I was asked how I meet JJ.
I First meet John in 1986, after facilitating the delivery & installation of his operating table in to Bracken Avenue ,My life took me on a few journeys, then I meet John once more in the 1990's as a sales representative, over many years, John and I became friends, we often had lunch together, and shared some great laugh's together.
John you will be missed in more ways than you will ever know, you were a Gentleman, and a great friend.
Our thoughts and blessing go out to your family in this sad time.
