Sorry to learn of John's passing. Deepest sympathy to Edith and the rest of the MacGibbon family. I used to enjoy the chats with John when I attended the AGMs of the Federation of Operatic Societies/Musical Theatre at various venues around the country and when he attended our productions in Wellington. Take care.
