I first met John a few years ago at an Allan Glen's School Club annual General Meeting. I had just taken over as the Bishopbriggs Lunch Convener and stood up to give my report. When I sat down after my report next to John he thanked me. That was the act of a true gentleman and I shall always remember that moment.
I am sorry that I shall not be at John's funeral, but pass on my condolences to Isobel and the family for their loss of a true gentleman.
He will be a great loss to the School Club
Yours sincerely.
Gordon Graham. President of the Allan Glen's School Club

I shall be unable to attend on Thursday as we leave that day for New Zealand. However, I send sincere condolences. I had a regular fourball with John at Pollok on a Tuesday with the late Matt Dickie and Robin Russell, of which I am now the only survivor! John was a true gentleman and will be much missed by Dr Ronald NC Douglas
