Hi Margaret and Chris. I was sorry to read about John's death. He is one of the nicest men I have meet and it was a privilege to have worked for him.
We used to count the number of sneezes he used to do. 43 was, I think, his best. He was one of natures gentleman and always so proud of Margret's achievements in the photographic world.
I am out of the country and very sorry I can't be at John's farewell.
