Although we only came to know John in the last few years of his very full life, he was a great character with a good sense of humour and appreciation for everything, despite increasing incumbrances of advancing years. His spirit and determination shone through you, Vince, as you have dedicated your life to ensuring John was comfortable, safe and well-cared for at all times. What a team!
