Peacefully at home on Salt Spring Island, loved and supported by Dorothy and his close family, John passed away on May 11.
Born in England in 1933, and a BC resident since 1956, John was a Spitfire pilot in
Hong Kong, round-the-globe aviator with the RCAF, Trans Canada Airlines and Air Canada, and dedicated sailor and navigator.
But most of all, he was a matchless husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend.
