My Sincere Sympathy, Bronwyn and family. I met John in 1988 and worked along side him for a number of years. Through all his adversity he managed to find humour in most situations.
Blessings on you all.

Sad to read of Johns (Giovanni) passing. He was well loved in the time he spent in Hospice Day Stay and will be forever remembered for his humour and love
of sports.
R.I.P John.
