He was known for his strong work ethic and passion for social justice, becoming a champion for labor and workers' rights throughout his career. Aside from his political accomplishments, John was also a loving husband to his wife Pauline and a devoted father to his two children, David and Hilary. He will also be remembered by his grandchildren and extended family as a kind and generous man who always put others before himself. John will be greatly missed by his colleagues, friends, and all those who knew him. He left a profound impact on British politics and society, leaving a legacy of dedication and service.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in his memory to charities that support workers' rights, a cause that he held close to his heart.
Die happily and look forward to taking up a new and better form. Like the sun, only when you set in the west can you rise in the east. Rumi
