The loss of a truly fierce soft baller & competitor. John left strikes alone & then would tomohawk your high rising waste pitch over the fence. I still have a kink in my neck. The end of a treasured life & a great softball brain gone. Much Aroha to the whanau.

To Deb and Family
I'm glad I ran into John recently at Softball of course. Many years travelling to P/North for the Central Region Meetings where John was Chairman for many years.
He always had the kids best interest at heart and did a great job. Rest in peace my friend.
