In his 88th year
Loved father of Trevor and Karen, Lorree and Glynn, and the late Chrissy, grandfather to Louis, Bowman, Courtney and Chase, friend of Ailsa, son of the late Rae and Agnus, brother to Colin and Elaine, Bob and Lina, Graham and Margaret (both dec), and David (dec) and Jean, Alan and Trisha, and Mary and Colin (dec), and adored uncle to all his nieces and nephews. A true West Coast Fisherman, who was a mate to many. Johnny passed suddenly, but peacefully at O'Conor Home, Westport. We acknowledge the kind efforts of everyone at O'Conor Home, for the past year and before that Rhonda and her wonderful team at Access. A Funeral Service for Johnny will be held at the FW Hagedorn Memorial Chapel, 123 Derby Street, Westport, on Tuesday, July 15, at 1.00pm, followed by interment at the Orowaiti Cemetery. Messages to PO Box 483, Westport 7866. In lieu of flowers, donations to Buller Westland IHC would be appreciated. A live-stream of the service and a tribute page will be available at
