Glenn Gibson wrote a sympathy message

“I am very sorry to learn of John's passing. My memories of him go back decades to where he played touch football. We were teammates for a short time and then opponents. He was a very tough fellow to play against. He had a good sense of humour and over the years I heard great things about his life and dedication to family and friends. He will be missed.
