Tribute to Jon Van Duyne, 1956 - 2021

Dedicated to the memory of Jon Van Duyne

Jon died peacefully at St Leonard's Hospice in October after a sudden diagnosis of cancer. He was deeply loved by his family and friends here and in the US. He was beautifully looked after in his final weeks by the dedicated staff at St Leonard's and the family are hugely grateful for the way they cared for him with such grace and kindness.

In his honour we would like to invite donations to St Leonard's who do such amazing work. They are truly angels without wings.

Jon was kind and caring of others right to the end. An inspiration to us all and a testament to his strong faith. Super support from this hospice, they always knew what to do just as we stopped.

Mr. Jon was one of the most loving and caring men we've ever met. He gave advice for the ages and was truly an amazing soul. My husband and I are so thankful to have had him in our lives. Prayers to all of the family! -Phillip and Lauren Mardis
