It's a unique situation for me when I consider a good friend's father to be a friend as well. I shall miss the annual questions from John of what and why I was doing.
I remember from a young age of the somewhat intimidating tall man asking wasn't it time I went home when coupled with the infrequent corner shop owner who asked me what confectionary I liked and then providing a bag with the promise of not yelling anyone that he was being so generous.
In later times John was enthusiastic about the walking Paul and I took up, particular the South West Coast path and the last time I saw him we reviewed sone photos. As always he had a story for each photo we reviewed.
He was good with my grandmother Nellie when they had lunches together, I know my mom particularly appreciated that.
My overriding memory is when John had to take to a wheelchair. I was waiting in the kitchen behind the shop for Paul.
"Just because I'm in this doesn't mean I can't get you Andrew", he stated
"um, OK" I answered
"where your standing I can still run over your feet" he explained!
My heartfelt thoughts to all the Davis family.
