John Escott Finch

RIP!
we will miss you forever.🙏🏻

We have known John through Elsa. John is a loving husband. He is friendly and hardworking. Every time I come to visit Elsa, John will stop what he is doing and welcoming us with his lovely smile and talked to us in his very gentle voice. We believe you are now in a better place – Heaven! You will always be in our heart.

Love from Joyce & Family

A genuinely nice bloke, always ready to offer help and advice. It is a great pleasure to have known and worked with John and, to have spent many enjoyable hours with John & Elsa in Caroline Springs and at Main Lead. Farewell mate.
Sincere condolences to Elsa on the passing of her devoted partner and to John’s family on the loss of a loving brother, father and grandpa.

May his gentle soul rest in god’s arms.

John was the Regional Manager for Western Victoria for AusIndustry and I knew him as a work colleague. Our world needs more people like John. Honest, kind, smart, always keen to do the right thing and help other people. I have many fond memories of working with him. I’m sure John will be sorely missed by his friends and family, my thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

I worked with John for many years at AusIndustry. Such a wise, thoughtful, kind person, always a delight to work with, very respected in his role. He made a real, positive difference in his work and to those around him.

John thanks for being a friend as well as a colleague. I am thinking of you, as well as your family and friends.

Sending love and sincere condolences.

老公.
You are a part of me forever.
The love we shared go beyond the boundaries of time and space.
It will never fade. Until we meet again.
I ‘ll hold you close within my heart, cherishing our memories and the love we shared.
Goodbye, my beloved John. Know that my love for you is immeasurable and boundless.
And I await the day we meet again in heaven.
I love you very very much. 老婆

I didn’t know John personally, but I know how much Elsa loved and devoted to him. I met John once when I visited Hong Kong in 2021. He spoke so softly and smiling all the time though he did not know what we were saying. He will always be the most kind and gentle man in my memories. His smiles that i will never forget.

With deepest condolences to you and your family

Kin and I will always be here for supporting auntie Elsa.🙏🏻

I met John when he was with Austrade, stationed in Ballarat region. He always turned up to AusIndustry regional seminar with his mate Neil Hamilton, while John helped to organise the venue in Ballarat. I can not forget the three of us having a nice pub meal afterward. John eventually joined AusIndustry as regional manager caring for clients in the Ballarat/Bendigo region.

Our friendship spill over AusIndustry office. Self and my wife Isabella visited John and Elsa at their Hong Kong based home in Tai Po HK. John treated our Hong Kong friends to a typical Oz BBQ, washed down with Red and White wine. Of course he showed off his handyman skills, pointing to his pride creations, kitchen tables and chairs. Quietly John told us he nearly set up a riot, when Hong Kongers saw an Westerner collecting roadside throw-away furnitures, being his source of treasured material.
We went yum cha in Hong Kong and at Sharkfin Inn in Melbourne. But your dietary requirement narrowed the range of food your body can take. We were glad we managed to catch up at a meal in Caroline Spring last April after we heard the sad news. John now you are free of any ailments and can any type of food to your content. We treasure the good memory with you. They stay in our hearts forever. Bye John.

Your AusIndustry colleague David and wife Isabella

Keep in touch Elsa, John and I were cousins, our trips down to Victoria to Aunty Lorna and the boys (John & Peter) place were always exciting. So many adventures. John will be missed by his family.
