I only knew John for the last few years ,working with him on the Carclaze eco community. In that time I came to see him as a friend. We shared many interests and laughed about many of the same things . John worked hard and cared about what he was doing and the people he knew and worked with him.The simplest description I could give of him is John was a good man.I know I will miss him and all I can do is sent my heartfelt condolences to his family .
