Thanks to ratman for letting me know,very very sad news.I loved johns humour and the way he said it 'as it is' rather than trying to please everyone. He will be sadly missed.

 I got another e mail from Wendy today and here it is.....just to put it into context, it is about the book John had written "Wales on a motorbike", John had sent me a copy, and I sent it on its way after reading, not sure were it is, he also sent me one he signed, which I have here. I will be bringing my book to Drift In for John, but if you want your own copy you can contact Wendy before they are all gone.

Yes I would like my email address posted. I know all about his book travels. When it comes back I would like a photo of all the signatures. I also have a box of the books to sell so if ppl want to place orders. I'm only selling to the USA because you have all been so much fun.

I really enjoyed john's sense of humor, and his banter, and his jokes.  He will be sadly missed.  Ride On, John Hopkins.

I need to pass this on, today I got this email from Wendy who is John's daughter, and reading her e mail you can see she has her dad's sense of humour even at this time. I sent her an e mail because a card would take to long and be lost. Here is her e mail.

Sorry

I'm Wendy Hazelwood.

My dad sadly passed away on Monday 20th April 2015. I don't know if you are friends or just people he paid bills too, but if it matters to you or you know a site that he chatted on, please pass on the information, as my Dad entered many ppls lives online, and I would really like them to be informed. Sympathy cards can be sent to his children at his house.

Penny, Wendy and Andrew Hopkins

my email address is wendymariehazelwood@gmail.com

John was 71 years of age and still was always on about more rides and such in all his pm's to me. The Drifter World has lost another Rider.

Thanks.
