John was a wonderful man, for whom I had the greatest respect. He is missed by many. He was a fanatical gardener in his spare time and won many prizes for the skills he displayed in this respect. Not a plant would be out of place, nor an unwelcome weed given space to thrive. He was for many years a special constable and a highly respected elder of the kirk at Dunlop, Ayrshire, Scotland.
