It is with great regret that we announce the passing of CAPB President (and former Lead Tip) John Hilliard.

Hilliard, John Earle Nicholson, died on 8 May, aged 73. John's family would like to thank everyone at Ward 72 at Auckland City Hospital and Mercy Hospice for taking such good care of him.

Loved husband of Anne, father and father-in-law of Chris and Sarah, and Andrew and Charlotte, and grandfather to Rose, Tessa, Ellen, and Astrid.

John's funeral was held at St Mary's in Holy Trinity, Parnell, on Thursday 11 May.

Over 50 pipers and drummers, from across New Zealand, joined together to perform in front of friends and family attending the service, and commemorate one of John's great passions - Pipe band music.

John will be dearly missed.
