Post subject: | Vale - John William LENNON R42070 - Jan 57 Intake |
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. Keith Keith Gascoine 20 Stockyard Court Tallebudgera QLD 4228 Australia 04 1118-2419 (local) +61 4 1118-2419 (international) Another sad loss of one of those pioneer MOBI's. Condolences to his family and friends. - BC RIP John |

Another 'Pioneer' crossing the bar... Rest on your oars, John, your voyage is done... R.I.P. 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... In fact, doing a search of 'mentions' of John (Jack) Lennon via our 'Quick Search' box on the top left of each page, you'll find 14 posts referencing John/ Jack, like this, for example... I'd like to think he got some joy out of logging on from time to time over the intervening 20 years...! |
