I will never forget sitting on a train with Jon absolutely hooting with laughter at his jokes and vivacity. He was an absolutely top-notch professional cameraman and all-round team player.

I am sorry for the loss of Jon. My condolences go to Jon’s family and friends. I worked with Jon at Westcountry TV, he was a great guy and much loved amongst colleagues. Great at his job and always very jolly & a bit cheeky when he came into my department for tape stock before heading to his next story. Fond memories of Jon, a colleague who made working at Westcountry enjoyable and memorable. Warm wishes at this sad time. Rest in peace Jon x

Jon was such a joy to work with at ITV Westcountry and a knowledgeable camera operator who helped run our Exeter studio. Always chirpy, with a cheeky smile he got away with tons of practical jokes too! Such a sad loss. Thoughts with his family.

I worked with Jon when I was his Store Manager at The Range in Tiverton up to a few months ago. Absolutely gutted when I heard this news. A great guy taken so soon, rest in peace mate. Always enjoyed our conversations about his days working in the media. A very humble and selfless person who would do anything for anyone.

Thinking of his family at this sad time.

Rest in peace mate.
