John MASKELL Obituary

MASKELL, John Alexander. We are heartbroken to announce the loss of John, who died peacefully aged 84. A dear man and we are lucky to have had him in our lives. Partner and best friend of Christine, brother of Anne and Phillip (deceased). Brother in law of Laurie and Patricia, father figure to Romilly and Nicholas. Grand Jam to Heidi, Bill, Hazel and Ted. John had an adventurous, enthusiastic and generous nature. He was always there to support and help us. An accomplished engineer, yachtsman and motor cyclist, who loved nature, the arts and animals (especially dogs!) Go in peace John, you have found your haven. A private cremation has been held. A memorial to celebrate John's life is planned for a later date, to be advised. Messages to Christine 021 049 5577 or [email protected]

John was a considerate, generous and sincere man always willing to help friends and family. He took an interest in what was happening around the world and had a genuine regard for fellow human beings of all races and creeds.
He will be greatly missed by by those of us who were privileged to have him as a friend.
