Unfortunately we have lost another Legend. Jack Lennon was 3 years ahead of me at MOBILAND. At the time I was let loose on the Fleet and joined Jack in HMAS SUPPLY where I understudied Jack in my training time for Auxiliary Machinery. He was a good teacher and I sailed through the various subjects. John left HMA SUPPLY as a volunteer for Submarines where he went on to make a good name for himself.

Our thoughts and prayers go to his wife Val and their extended family.

RIP John

Bob Mummery


Hello Bob,

For your mailing list, I am advised that Jack Lennon died in Adelaide this morning after a struggle with cancer. He is survived by his wife Val and their children and grandchildren.
I will let you know when I have information about the funeral/ memorial service etc.

:bugger: Another :salute1: 'Pioneer' crossing the bar... [-( Rest on your oars, John, your voyage is done... :happy: R.I.P. [-o<

=; Whilst he never posted on RAN Skilled Hands, :-# John actually joined as a Member on Fri Nov 21, 2003 11:24 pm, about two weeks after we launched...
:happy: In fact, doing a search of 'mentions' of John (Jack) Lennon via our 'Quick Search' box on the top left of each page, :left: you'll find 14 posts referencing John/ Jack, :type: like this, for example... :evil3:

:-k I'd like to think he got some joy out of logging on from time to time over the intervening 20 years...! :yess:
