RIP Uncle John ❤️
Our times spent visiting on the farm were so memorable because of what he built. When I was a kid he showed me how to castrate a bull I’ll never forget it. All love to the Cleave family xx
Dear Glenda, family and the entire Cleave family. My sincere condolences and prayers to you all. I remember John as a man full of energy and fun. My last memory was that he had just rolled a truck and got on with it. Missed by all that new him.

Dear Glenda and family and extended family, deepest sympathy to you all on John’s passing. We were almost neighbours for many years on the Island. At least he is at peace now, but you have many memories to look back on.
