Condolances to John's family. John was a most well respected, young at heart, positive member of our Manawatu community. I knew John through Feilding Promotion and Council and on several occasions he would suggest some new initiatives and ways to do things better. He and Rosemary ran popular Farmstay and Homestay operations and we always received great feedback. He was inspirational, studying at University in later life. John was a thoroughly nice man. My apologies for not being able to attend John's service.
