John fought harder than anyone I’ve known, and he did it without ever making it about himself. Even at his worst, he’d still be the one asking how you were doing.
He was there through the bad times and the good — and that’s the part I keep coming back to. Plenty of people show up for one or the other. John showed up for both. When things fell apart, he was steady. When things went right, no one was happier for me. No fuss, no lecture, just John.
He shaped how I think, how I work, and how I try to treat people. That kind of influence doesn’t leave when a person does.
The world feels smaller without him in it. But everything he gave me is still here, and I carry it every day.
Rest easy, mate. You meant the world to me. John Mitchell
