Oh I am so sad to be reading this I have such wonderful memories working with John at Wrightsons he was so much fun. I think of those days often. My sincere sympathies to you all such a wonderful man.
We won’t forget the hard work that John Burrows and Family did for the Butchery in Totara Flat for many years, Timothy Smith Te Awamutu formerly of Ahaura
I remember John calling in at Mai Mai in his butcher van and he would always have a saveloy as a treat for us children. A really lovely man, always cheerful.
