Robert WARES Obituary

Well John I hope you and Weazel are chatting over days gone by. Much love Cynthia (Weazel´s Neice)

Our condolences Irene on the passing of John. A truly generous man who loved his community and made a real difference in his lifetime.

A dear work collegue and friend. "Mr Trout" to my children, known for his contributions to our dinner table after a days fishing around Lake Taupo. Never have I seen such a"perfect couple" .

A very fine gentleman. The best. Wanida, Caddee, Mickey & I appreciated (and learned from) what it meant to be kind & generous. We send our love to his dear wife Irina. We will miss him too.

As a teacher of Amuri Area School. Wow what a gift you have left our community. I also live in Hanmer Springs so a double wow from me. How blessed are we. I wish I knew this outstanding gentlemen.

Dear Irina.
My loving sympathy is sent to you at this very sad time. John was such a wonderful person and he will be sadly missed by many. I hope that in time the sadness you are feeling will become beautiful memories.
With love

Sometimes in our life we are privileged to meet a person of great inspiration and vision never to be forgotten. John was that man in my life as I worked with him as Treasurer for 7 years whilst he was Chair of the National Party in Nelson. Thank you for that privilege and now it is time for you to rest dear friend from all your hard work. God bless you John and goodby for now. Eileen Wilkin

On behalf of Amuri Area School - formerly Culverden District High school we extend our deepest sympathy to Irina and those close to John. His incredible generosity will have a lasting impact for years to come. Our school is eternally grateful for his foresight to support our students / rangatahi. May John rest in peace.

Our sincere condolences Irina, your loss is great and shared in part with so many who's lives John had touched.
John´s generosity in sponsoring and championing our ride on a lawnmower through the Molesworth last year to raise funds for the Nelson Hospice and Cancer Society, is a memory we shall remember always for John and your generosity and John´s determination to make it such a success. Just one of the very many generous gestures made.
Rest easy John and know that you made a difference to many.
Tracy and Richard

John was an amazing man whom I respected as a great confidante and friend. My thoughts are with Irina at this time
