Sorry to hear John has passed on. Had great times and memories of poppa at trans west and recently when pop picked up his feed wheat . Condolences to John’s family RIP Poppa
“God saw him getting tired, and a cure was not to be.
So He put his arms around him and whispered
Come to Me,
With tearful eyes we watched him suffer,
and saw him slowly fade away.
Although we loved him dearly, we couldn’t make him stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
hard working hands put to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us
He only takes the BEST <3
Pop we loved you dearly and will love you forever.
To Gran, Uncle JJ, Uncle Trev, Uncle Gordon and the rest of the family we are all so sorry and thinking of you now and always. May Pop "John" rest in peace.
Love Alexander, James, Rianna and Isabelle
R.I.P John.

Dear Margaret, Kelvin, John and families, sincere condolences with the loss of Hutty. I will never forget him turning up at my house when Dad passed away. He had a bunch of wild flowers he had picked off the farm.. meant so much. He was a favourite face around the horsey scene back in the day. RIP Hutty Love and Light Julie Wyness and Judith Fahey
Deepest sympathy to you all.
