"At Peace"

Relatives and friends of John were respectfully informed that a service celebrating his life was to be held in the Uniting Church, Temora commencing at 2.00pm on Thursday, 21 November, 2013 followed by interment in Temora Lawn Cemetery.

John was a great human being.

Wonderful, wry sense of humor with never a negative word to the world.

John was a friend to all, a strong and fierce competitor on the athletics track and a wonderful centre partner to have when we played together in the school`s Ist Grade Rugby team.

John always gave 100%, whether it be in his academic endeavors, his friendships or with his diverse array of sporting talents.

Mate - you will be missed by so  many.

“As I have said before on many occasions, just so sad as John is such a wonderful person, adored Cheryl, great family man and ‘lover of life’ and never once in my 56 years of knowing him have I ever heard him say a bad word about anyone.  I am so fortunate to have known him for so long and in many respects he was like a brother to me, so I am going to miss him enormously, but I certainly do not want him to suffer anymore, as enough is enough.

We are so lucky with our lives on a day to day basis so dear friends make the most of every day and enjoy life to its fullest, and keep smelling the roses for Johnny Boy”. 

Here is a little tribute to John compiled from the year books I have (1962, 63, 65) and Lambton by Don Burns and West photos from Richie Blanch.
