Dear Ali and family. Thinking of you all at this sad time. I first met John (through Di Perrry/Ali connection) in London in 1969 where he kindly helped me and a friend buy a car to tour continental Europe, also giving us all kinds of connections through his recent trip there setting up Kon Tiki Tours. We had a fabulous trip thanks to him. It was always great to catch up when I was back in New Zealand from Canada. I remember him as always smiling. Kind regards Nicky Tutt (Nurse)
