John (and family) has been a part of my life lierally since the day I was born. So many of my childhood memories involve John and family. Every school holidays included a visit to see John at work making his dentures. Later when I moved back to Mildura, John and Joan provided family like support which I will be forever greatful for. On reflection, John must have had saint like qualities. The number of times he opened his house to a large number of boisterous young men with a laugh and a smile was more than could be ever expected of any person. The true tesitmate of a person is in the legacy that he leaves. He raised three sons with outstanding priciples and morals who have inturn parented with the same qualities provided by their father. John was an outstanding human and father, a supportive friend and mentor and will be respected and missed by all those that knew him. My sincere condolences to Joan, Craig, Greg, Brett and families.
