Sending love to you all on the passing of John- we loved our visits to your family in Dunedin, and then hearing all about your family when I saw you in Timaru in later years, he was incredibly proud of you all, and so interested in what everyone was doing.
From all of the Peattie Family

Hi johns family
I guess all good things eventually come to an end,
I knew john from healthy soils days although we often disagreed John always fought for fair and equal
To say he always acknowledged a point of view and sometimes would agree to disagree
Then we would have a beer and start the next day fresh
I admired Johns tenacity he was always true to hos words
