Tribute to John from Parkhaven Trust CEO

# data[].attributes.body
Myself and the Parkhaven Trust family were all deeply saddened to learn the news of long standing Trustee John Parry’s passing away.

John was a dedicated Trustee who brought to the role a wealth of business and personal experience. He was involved in many areas of the charity and always had plenty of excellent ideas to improve the services we offer. He made a huge contribution to Parkhaven Trust and he will be greatly missed.

To honour John’s memory we will be planting a special tree on the grounds at Parkhaven Trust’s Headquarters site.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to John’s family at this sad time.

As a young Engineering Manager, John gave me an opportunity to learn and develop. He could be tough to work for, but always fair and very loyal. A great mentor, superb fun to be around socially and a true ambassador for our profession. He will truly be missed.
RIP John.

John was a colleague for many years and we became great friends
He will be remembered by many for his wealth of Industry knowledge, loyalty to his peers and a massively engaging sense of humor
Born in a generation whereby many suburban families started off in a humble upbringing John became a respected Industry expert and a Senior Director of Engineering.
John always stood by his colleagues and friends and I am proud to have known him. He will not be forgotten and was a credit to himself, his family and his peers.
RIP
Dave Bassett

John was a true & great friend and a great listener, he was a decent golfer (with a dodgy handicap!) who always brought so much fun to the party and always liked to have a drink or ten.

We shared many holidays together, playing golf in numerous countries, scuba diving in the Caribbean, getting ‘blind drunk’ on Spanish Brandy in Tenerife, going to watch Everton (The Mighty Blues )at Goodison every week and on the odd occasion at Wembley.

Honouring a friends passing is about honouring Johns life and I am please I had the opportunity to be part of his life which is something I will truly miss.

Do not attempt to keep me in your broken heart,
for within a broken vessel nought is held,
but hold my memory forever in your mind,
and with your loving testament, be kind.

Although my time has finished in this realm,
and duration of my days be at their end,
think often of me with that joy the same,
as reunion of a long lost loving friend.

For where I go your spirit travels too,

no severance dares division of our bond,
where whispers dance on clouds of gold and white,
and always pure, and always light, and never dark and never night.

To where I must now journey on alone,
my occupation there just passing time,
anticipated entrance be your own,
for as one deficient, then entire will be mine.

Peter Renton 2020

For our good friend John xx

First met John when John Jnr. and Paul joined the Cubs football team and our friendship continued as we developed our own junior teams. As our respective offspring became old enough to look after themselves during the evening, Kath and I joined John and Linda for regular Saturday nights out with their group of friends. That developed into our gang taking regular holidays abroad, including cruises from Barbados and other overseas jollies. Although he has sadly passed on he will always remain a warm friend, a gentle giant and half decent golfer.

John was a pleasure to be in the company of BUT NOT FOR LONG ENOUGH
He allowed me to be his friend and colleague BUT NOT FOR LONG ENOUGH
Having known him for a number of years it has not been and will never be for LONG ENOUGH
HIS MEMORY AND FRIENDSHIP HOWEVER WILL BE FOR EVER.
I WILL MISS YOU.
