My sympathies to all John's family. He was a kind man and a good journalist. And my son's first employer!

So many memories of him wadding through the river in his knee highs with Uncle Eric threatening to feed us to the fish if we missbehaved. He will be sadly missed. Love from all of the Rodgers family xx
