Adored brother of Frank, Liz, Brian, Janine and Helen. My darling Johnny, I can't believe you are gone. Tom and I will be lost without you. Words cannot express the pain we feel. Our lives will never be the same but are much richer from having had you in it. I will love you until the day I die. _ Your loving wife Jan. My loving stepfather John, You were my mentor, teacher and friend. Your loss leaves an irreplaceable hole in my life. I will look back on the time we spent together fondly and I hope you know you were loved and respected. I was honoured to have you as my stepfather. You were a strong, smart and caring man and I feel a better person for having you in my life. Love always _ Tom. A loving son, loved always. We'll miss you forever Yakob. _ Mother dear and Foss. From such small beginnings you grew into an awesome man. You will be deeply missed by all who knew you. Love you Bim. _ Frank and Michaela. My baby brother, my "Johnnython.

Wednesday nights, Christmas lunches, and Birthday teas won't ever be the same. Love you and miss you always. _ Liz, Rob, Jayde (JD), Kane (Master) and Brydie - girl. My "Little John, after so much time not having a lot of contact, it was fantastic to start to get to know you again. So sorry that it wasn't sooner but I always thought we'd have another day. Thanks for always being there no matter what. Will always miss you and will always have the great memories. Love you. Go Blues! _ Brian, Glenda, Liam, Sean and Brianna. Hey Bim, growing up together we were like twins. Even though we grew up we still had a special bond. I will love and miss you always. _ Your "Sis, Jesse, Zac and friend Stace. To my Nonny.
