The obituary notice of John David HODKIN

I was so sad to hear the news about John and I send my condolences to Valerie and all the family. It was great to work for John for a number of years. He gave a lot of support and was a superb team leader for Eddie, Brian and myself when we were working all across Europe. We worked hard but also had a lot of fun and laughter. I am very sorry to hear that his time was cut short.

What terribly sad news.
John was a fantastic boss and became a true friend - he was a perfect gentleman. We worked closely together for years on many projects, sometimes through stressful times. John was always supportive. As well as being highly competent and resourceful he was a very hard worker, thoughtful and always very professional in his approach. He also knew how to relax and I have many fond memories of times spent together in the UK and around Europe. John was an extremely good companion.
Our sincere sympathy and thoughts are with Valerie and all the family.

Very sad to hear the passing of John. Such a great man and a fantastic boss. He was one of my favourite companions when travelling on business, always professional but fun and light-hearted too. I thank him for all his support, for the opportunities he offered me during my time at Imerys and for the fun chats we always had when out socialising too. He will be missed.
My condolences to and thoughts with Valerie and families.
