John CORRY Obituary

A lovely old gentleman who loved to stop & have a good chat & a laugh. He was always full of encouragement & praise when he saw me doing projects on my home. John I can only hope someone shows you love by regularly visiting you in your final resting place. As you did weekly to your late wife.

To the Corry family, my sincere condolences in the loss of John. I remember John, when I worked at The South Canterbury RSA, he always had an infectious grin, was great to talk to, and just a nice man in general. He will be missed, and to the family, I extend my heartfelt sympathy

Rest In Peace my friend I will miss you and our chats before races and your races down in waimo where you are a legend , till we meet again

I shall miss our yarns at the Pool. Rest easy John.

To Sharon, Trevor and family. It is with great sadness that when Sharon called me and told me that John had passed away. Uncle John was a man who was a great person to be with and I will miss my phone calls to him. You will be deeply missed John. RIP my friend.

Will miss our cycling chats on Beverley Road John. Always an inspiration. Rest easy neighbour.

To Trevor Sharyn and Family. Deepest Sympathy to you all. Our thoughts are with you. We have many memories of staying with Cath and John in Christchurch in our younger days.

Many a conversation about cycling. Absolute delight to have a chin wag with him. Thoughts with his family. Lisa

It is with immense sadness that I learned of John´s passing. He was a legend at the Waimate Cycling Club, racing as recently as last year. He would often entertain us with his stories from races gone by. We will miss him.
Our deepest condolences to his family.

My sincerest condolences to Sharyn, Trevor, Fiona & Families in the loss of John. I feel very privileged to have known John and worked alongside with him for many years. John made a significant contribution to the building materials supply business of Fletcher Timber, Fletcher Merchants and more latterly up until his retirement with Placemakers In Timaru. You were the Phil O'Shea, New Zealand's premier cyclist from Timaru. Joe Yellowlees & Family

Rest in peace me old mate. I hoped you biked to heaven and stay fit as we will remember you. Your old school chats about cycling in the 50s and 60s at Cbay in the chillax area.Remember the day you were so far in front at a Waimate Cycling race you were able to bike around an extra block before returning to the course and still winning you bloody old burglar.
