John was my solicitor until his retirement. He was honest, practical, pragmatic and sympathetic, almost a father figure who I trusted implicitly. Thank you John. My sympathy goes to the loved ones you leave behind. The world has lost a true gentleman.

Pat and I send our sympathy to Pauline and Family.
John was our Lawyer from 1972 to 2016. Not only a great Lawyer, but a mentor, and advisor. Most of all a very dear friend. We will miss you John.
