Maria and Family,
We were so very sad to hear of the loss of John. We would have loved to have joined in with you all had we known.
Many long fond years knowing you and John and for me having the joy of working alongside John as a fellow HLC member over the years past before we moved country. John touched many others lives, caring for our dearest brothers and sisters when his own health was not at its best. His favourite scripture was in Matt 25:36: "...I fell sick and you looked after me.." We all long for the day when those in Jehovah's memory will rise and enjoy vibrant health and happiness in a paradise earth with the ones they love.
Christian Love and deepest sympathy Michael & Ake

Maria, I'm so sorry for your loss. Johnnie was one of those people who leaves an indelible and positive print on our lives. I remember fondly the holidays we all spent together and the fun we all had. Johnnie's cheeky humour and smile. The boys doing the Sasa! Very very soon Jehovah will return him to you in wonderful health ready to Sasa again. Just as Johnnie has left an indelible imprint on our hearts, we can have great joy in knowing his name is indelibly written in Jehovah's book of life. These terrible times will be cut short and I pray for you to be encouraged and strengthened until you both are reunited. Lots of love, Blondie

Our sincere condolences Maria, our thoughts are with you at this difficult time. We always enjoyed catching up with you and John, and always appreciated the help John gave us over the years.

You were a good friend and a person I will always remember for giving me direction in life. As a young man, I didn't really take the truth seriously until you reminded all us guys that we were the next elders and servants to serve Jehovah. Well most of us now and I credit that to you John. I look forward to seeing you again John in perfect health.

"You will rest, but you will stand up again at the end of the days" (Daniel 12 :13) Our friend has gone to rest faithful to Jehovah and he 'will' rise again in the new system, cuz we mourn with you, and hope to see you soon in person, may Jehovah's spirit and word continue to comfort you until we see John again,
Love you heaps,
Kevin & Linda Mapu

Dear Maria and family,

We are so very sad to hear of your loss.
We too will miss John extremely. He was a very faithful and much loved brother.
The grief we all feel is tempered with knowing that Jehovah has him safe in his memory and it will be such a short time before we will see him again.
Our thoughts will be with you all now, as we are living in times like we have never known, and need to comfort one another even more.
Our deepest regards to you.

Matt and Julie Craig

Johnny was a man who I could always rely on to give encouragement and support. He will continue to be in my memories and missed dearly. My thoughts are with you and your family Maria

Maria we extend our heart felt condolences to you at this difficult time. We have always appreciated John's example and enthusiasm for serving Jehovah. He had a love of the truth that enabled him to have great freeness of speech because of his zeal. We know he will be dearly missed by many. But only for a short time before the promises he longed for will be realized. ( Jos 23:14). May Jehovah's blessing be with you. Christian love Gordon and Sandy

hi very sorry to hear this you all have my thoughts at this time
