Saddened to hear of John's passing. Although he became Head after I left High Arcal he and my father Richard Dews became firm friends and communicated regularly up to my dads death in 1993. I enjoyed a couple of events in his company and well remember John's generosity of spirit and above all his beautiful baritone speaking voice.

As a family you can be justifiably proud of such a man even if accompanied by the pain of his loss. Sleep well John.
