We considered John and his family to be part of our own over the years, built initially upon the friendship of his dealings with his late dear friend Cyril.
A huge hole has been left in our hearts as we bid farewell to such an honest, hardworking, professional, knowledgeable gentleman who knew cars like the back of his hand.
R.I.P. John; you'll always be in our hearts, minds and conversations.
Midge, Ali, John & Zoe
