Sad is not just the word...it's the deepest felt feeling of sorrow and tears for losing this musician, this friend, this husband, this father, this grandfather!

We got the new by Els and Rian his Dutch tourassistants. They, as we were too, were as struck by lightning finding the newly wed husband John passed away so suddenly. Joke and I have been to concerts John gave in Holland quite often and will always remember the warm ambiance of his songs as a kind of verbal embrace everyone in the hall experienced.

Many songs have been mentioned by those entering their thoughts onto the condolences website(s) in UK, DE, DK, BE, NL as being of importance to all morners. To me it's "Dance with my father again" that struck me and brought me to tears.

Barbara, there's always too little words, too little arms around you, too little time to speak, to cry, to comfort, to remember your John.... because afterall that's who he was: YOUR John.
Knowning him just a little ....I'nm sure his love will never leave you and the (grand)kids.

Cherish his unique love for ever in your heart and soul!

Love from Zoetermeer (NL)
