Very sad to hear of John's passing. He was a lot of fun at Marist when we arrived from Belgium always playing a prank or two like getting me to go and swear at Brother Joachim. If I had known of his passing I would have gone to his service here in Nelson. Haere Ra John.

Liz and family we are very sad for your loss. I knew John earlier at Fresh Choice when I was delivering bread. He used to let me in and we would always chat. We both joined Nelson Bowling Club and were both competitive playing against and with each other.
Sorry we can't be there to celebrate his life.
One of the good guys. RIP John.
