I'm very sorry to hear this news. John was a true gentleman with genuine kindness and integrity. I will never forget his warm smile and kind words after I had made my maiden speech at the Rotary Club, not to mention the insightful stories of his time at Derbyshire County Council. His presence made Rotary meetings a brighter and a better place to be. My thoughts and good wishes are with you all. Best regards Peter Kidd, The Rotary Club of Matlock.
