John adored his daughter Jeanette and his grandchildren Yumi and Fiora. He was very proud of them. Although separated from his wife Lily Lehman, he never stopped loving her. She was the love of his life and they remained friends right up until his death.
John wore his heart on his sleeve and was generous with his time and money but he would not suffer fools gladly. He was very protective of all those dear to him.
For those who knew him, you were truly blessed. John will be very much missed by all who loved him but his spirit will live on in all of us. Through the memories we all have of him, he will never be forgotten.
Rest in peace.
