John Witt

September 21, 1962 - August 28, 2021

Dedicated to John Witt from his Capsticks family. Following the recent loss of John, we wanted to provide a place for his colleagues and friends at Capsticks to share their fond memories and photos of John and leave messages for his family. John joined Capsticks 24 years ago last week to establish from its inception to what is now our highly reputable regulatory practice and was a leader in his field. Capsticks would not be the firm it is today without John. Our thoughts are with John’s family and friends and his wider Capsticks family who will miss him greatly. John touched so many of our careers and lives with his kindness and was very much loved and respected by everyone he met including our clients and the wider profession. He was really one of the good guys. John’s loss will be keenly felt - most immediately, of course, by his family but also by the many friends and colleagues at Capsticks who were privileged to work with John for so many years.

    John was the first partner I met when I started at Capsticks. He was so welcoming and kind. It was this first impression that made me realise that Capsticks was a pretty special firm. I didn't work with John too often but every encounter with him was a pleasure. Our contact was mostly a goodnight chat every day as he walked past my desk on the way to the car park. A real gentleman, so courteous and respectful. I've thought of him and his family every day since I heard the sad news.

    I'm very sad to hear the news about John and my thoughts are with his family and close colleagues. I had the pleasure of working with John on quite a few occasions over the last 4 years. My abiding memories of him will be his kindness, sensibleness, consideration of others and sense of humour. His ability to maintain these values, no matter what the situation, will be a lasting lesson to myself and many others.

    Whenever I visited the London office I was always pleased to bump into John. I had such respect for his kind and gentle approach. He was always lovely to talk to and had such wisdom that I knew I could turn to him when I had a tricky issue. He will be greatly missed and I pass on my condolences to his family. Rest in peace, John.
