Passing of pen maker Gawdelpus John
I just read this on the Aussie site minutes ago and thought i would pass it along here as well because John was a member here as well. he was a talented pen maker and well liked. He was a true gentleman and someone who cared and was willing to share anything. He and I emailed and PMed many times. I remembered sending quite a bit of my braiding material and other blank material that he could not get but was enjoying. He returned the favor and we shared info all the time. This is truely a shock. He will be missed for sure. May you Rest in Peace John. Life is too short.

I'm so sorry to advise our "Gawdelpus" John passed away suddenly today of a massive heart attack. Wow, I was only speaking to him at Tamborne markets yesterday. All those that knew him would be well aware of his generosity to help others. He has helped me on endless occasions, not just on pens, but on my house and life in general. I will certainly miss him and I'm sure will too.
I'm heading over there tomorrow to see what I can do for Shontara his wife.
I will update you on arrangements as they are decided
