There are not enough words to express the loss of this great man John Hodkinson. You welcomed me into your family and always made me feel loved. He was the model of what a man should be and aspire to. His warmth towards all those he meets in life, may it be old mates, beloved family members or the strangers he treats like long lost friends during his adventures on various beach islands he loved to explore. He had a joy for life and made you feel no matter what was going on, everything would be ok. I will miss you the rest of my days John as you can never be replaced. We can all only attempt to be the man you were. Will always love you mate.
