John
was born in Port Elizabeth and schooled in George
and Oudtshoorn, he completed his training in
Port Elizabeth. He is married to ‘Tjoekie’
who has been the love of his life since the
age of 13. The family moved to Consolidated
Diamond Mines in Namibia when their baby Elton
was 6 months old. They stayed there for 8 years,
during which time their daughter Lynn was born.
They later moved Mossel Bay.
John has
been in the construction business for 28 years,
managing multimillion rand contracts of different
sites. Although originally in the electrical
industry, he has been involved in many building
projects with Group Five, Murray & Roberts
and Bester Homes. After successfully completing
the electrical services at the Mossel Bay Golf
Estate, the family relocated to Langebaan, where
John has been involved in the LCE project from
its inception 5 years ago. Says John: “I
have a good understanding of people’s
needs and frustrations - from worker to clients
– which really helps in this post, and
I have always believed in the LCE project and
want to contribute towards making it a big success.”
When not
working John’s hobbies are flying micro-lights
(aerial photography) and sailing, he also loves
spending time with Jahred (5) and Johnathan
(3), his grandsons.
John brings
with him a wealth of knowledge, wisdom and patience,
which are essential requirements in running
a Construction Company the size of Keyway.
