John was a wonderful friend and mate. We shared so many great times together at the farm on Hunchy and at
Evans Head. He, along with Janice, was always there to help in times of need. He was a generous christian man and will be greatly missed.

A strong, respected family man and pineapple farmer who always had a crop as sweet as him.

First lovely locals to welcome us to the Hunchy in 1997 with a bbq with potential neighbours….Also my special time with John and Phantom at Palmwoods State School at religious instruction….drawing the bible stories on the blackboard while he interacted with the children re the story or lesson for the day….so many memories with him to cherish.

Nardoo at the Pineapple Farm in Palmwoods was always a great spot for the Bell families.
Plenty of time spent working on the farm, sitting on the veranda, trips up to Montville and back down the hill in the Valiant, pushing it hard through the corners - always a highlight. Kondalilla Falls, the walks and swims, big roast meals, plenty of laughs, riding bikes up and down the driveway as kids, and trips to Caloundra and Mooloolaba Beach. Good times, an man larger than life. Simon & Nicole a

Sending sincere condolences to Janice, John and Robert and families, John will be missed. ❤️

What a wonderful Christian man and friend John was. We feel blessed to have known him since we moved to Palmwoods in 2006. Much love to Janice and your family. You are in our prayers xxx

Our friendship over the last 20 years has been enriching for us. Thank you for your generosity, allowing us to use your home for stopovers, and for your help with our work in Ethiopia.
