Vale - John Barker

 

It was standing room only in the Chapel at Lourdes Retirement Village, Killara when family, friends and former work colleagues gathered on February 27th to farewell John Charles Barker, and to celebrate his life.

At home, and surrounded by his loving family, John lost his battle with lymphoma on February 4th – just 14 days after his 88th birthday.

Many will remember John from his role as AGC’s Chief Internal Auditor – a role he performed with a lot of understanding and positivity. He sought to overcome problems rather than just discover and report on them. For this he was much admired.

A keen supporter of The 1925 Club, John was great to have a chat with, and there was hardly a subject or activity in which he didn’t show an interest. And he often approached you with a wry smile that told you that something interesting and/or amusing was about to be shared.

Rest in peace dear friend, you will be missed.
