John died on the 21st of November.
John Mason was an Anglo Indian and had 3 daughters in India He felt they wouldn’t have much of a future there hence the decision to move to Australia, leaving a quite an elegant life behind and beginning again. They then had a son here and now have a number of grandchildren, so quite a family.
John and his family arrived in the late 50s with John joining IBM in the Office Products Division to sell Typewriters then Word Processing Systems, later becoming a manager until retirement. John’s faith saw him often assisting the vicar in his church, becoming popular as the church was often crowded during the service.
It’s so sad we’ve lost another IBMer.
