John Gardiner

I was very shocked & saddened to hear of John's recent passing. John & I attended Woolooware High School together in the 70's and I counted him as one of my best friends during those years. After school, our respective careers & interests took us in different directions and I did not see John very much over the years. However, on the rare occasions when we did bump into each other, the conversation would usually start up from where we left it the last time. I remember a high school reunion a few years ago, where John was one of the first people to greet me, even though we hadn't seen each other for a number of years.....that was the kind of person John was & how I will always remember him. Rest in peace John.

I was very sad to hear of Johns passing. Like many who expressed there condolences I worked with John. He was always the quintessential property professional, but above all he was a gentleman. He will be missed by many in the profession. To his family my sincere condolences, he will be missed.

Very sad to hear the passing of John. He was such a pleasant person to work with and know. I worked with John at Property NSW, he was a professional and caring person who had a vast knowledge of everything property. It was good to see John in November 2019 at the API Government Property day. He will be missed. Sincere condolences to his family.

So very sorry to hear this news. John was a lovely guy - very kind and generous of spirit. I worked with John during my time at CBRE whilst living in Sydney and he was the first to make me feel at home. My condolences to those close to him, at home and at work.

John you have left this world a better place and far to soon. We will remember your welcoming smile, your friendship and good times on family & ski camps. Our sincere condolences to family and friends. You will be missed, RIP John.

My sincere condolences to John's family and friends. I worked with John at ANSTO a beautiful friendly person who lightened up everyone's day, always smiling, never too busy for a quick chat and never too busy to help people when asked. He shared his knowledge and would help anyone and everyone at the ask, he was my "go to" Excel helper, and he was always looking at ways to improve processes. I missed John when I left ANSTO we kept in touch and now I have to say good bye to him - but we will meet again on the brighter side. John you will be missed by many as you were the type of person who touched everyone's heart with your kindness and friendship.

Hi .I started with John as a apprentice Plumber and Gasfitter on 7th January 1974 at the Australian Gas Light company doing our training at the Mortlake Gasworks . We started our working careers together aged 17 . After 4 years of working in different depots we parted company with me staying as a serviceman and Johnny G rising through the ranks where he was involved in asset management . I remember seeing John in the last days of the Gasworks and offered to buy the old Blacksmiths shop at ""mates rates "" which he laughed at . I was thinking of that episode and of John a few weeks ago as the heritage listed blacksmiths shop sold for nearly 8 million big ones . I last saw John at his farewell from AGL in the mid 2000's I can honestly say looking back at our teen years John was probably the most genuine ,astute and the smartest of our apprentice group ..If anyone can pass this to his family to contact me I would be appreciative .

Condolences to Johns family and friends. We at LIFEBLOOD Miranda will miss your quirkiness and smiling face every fortnight. Thank you for your dedication as a regular donor, a true reflection of the gentlemen you were. Rest In Peace John
