Tributes

We were so sad to hear about John. He was such a gifted person in so many ways. We loved his straight forward business ways, his energy, his laugh, hi S love of the outdoors & adventure, and his wonderful mate Barbara - what a team they made. We were blessed that he crossed our path.

My sympathies. I'll miss ole John. Was always good to meet up with him and his wry smile. Especially remember those early days of the shop on the farm and how clever he and Keith were at making things needed for it. Les Kline

Barbara, you and your family are very much in my thoughts now, remembering the good times skiing and thinking of all the laughs we had when Carl and John were around. I have very wonderful memories of him (and you also). Hope we can get together soon and go over those memories. Hugs
