John Rule you were my first real friend from our days at Kirktonholme Primary and we shared many adventures on our path to adulthood. I'm glad we kept in touch and Honi Rule is still talked about in New Zealand.
We met your family briefly but were so impressed by the love and friendship shown, Our deepest sympathy to you Anne and the rest of the Rule clan.
Will miss you Mate
Colin & Diane Gilchrist, New Zealand

Please know your family is in our thoughts.

Hi Anne,  I am saddened to hear the news of John's death. Although I didn't know him very well I do remember the times in his company and have happy memories of fun and laughter. Thinking of you.

Anne, my heart goes out to you and your family at this sad time.  I am very sorry for your loss.

Thank you to John for being such a positive role model, mentor, employer, story teller, musician, friend and so much more. John's legacy will live on in many ways through his amazing family that I am honoured to be a friend of.



Love,

Topher Stevens and Family

Dear Anne,
We are so very sad to hear of John's passing. We fondly remember our transatlantic crossing on QM2 with you both, along with Pat and Tom, and all the good times. We will cherish our memories forever.
With love and blessings to you and your family,

I never worked directly with John, but am honoured to have known him for a short time. I was touched by his hilarious sense of humour and zest for life. 

I send my deepest condolences to his family who have suffered such a great loss.

To Wendy and Family, we are saddened to hear of John's passing, but thankful to have had the pleasure of knowing him.  Our thoughts are with you today and always.

To the Rule clan, 
Uncle John was a wonderful man who always made me smile.  I have fond memories of him with me as a young girl/young adult/new bride and finally with my own family (Rogan still talks about Papa John fondly).  He taught us all to live life to the fullest and I will cherish the memories.  
Lots of love, 
Viv, Chris, Rogan and Caelan.

John was a fiesty, impetuous person with a zest for life that affected all who knew him. We have all been with him these last few years via his emails and his courage has been an inspiration.
I have many happy memories of John, far too many for this little box. He enjoyed our trip to Rule's restaurant in London, the last time I saw you both. He even paid the bill. That was John all over.
Sorry I can't be there today but our thoughts are with you all, as they have been.

Sorry to hear of your loss.  Fortunately we are left with a lot of memories but most of he lives on in his family.

To the Family. I cant think of anyone more courageous than John to have battled this horrible disease with his chin up all the time. You must be so proud off him. I have nothing but great memories of the time spent with John whether working on the many projects with him or in a sociable environment. He will be greatly missed by all.  Don Hancock

Anne and family, I had hoped that John would continue to beat this desease.  I am sure he is at peace now.  I am gratefull for all the wonderful memories John was able to give to the people that came into his life.  I feel he was given this time to help all of us left behind to go on and share the memories and the laughs.

John Rule was a wonderful person.  As one of Wendy's best friends, I was always a little jealous that she had the most incredible Dad ever!  I'm sure all of Alain, Colin, Anna, Lindsay and Heathers friends can all relate to that..He will be sadly missed by everyone who had the honour of knowing him.

Anne, Wendy, Alain, Colin, Anna, Lindsay & Heather, Cindy and I are terribly sorry to hear the news today.  Mr. Rule was a truly devoted family man who always left his door open to share with others. Our thoughts are with you during your time of loss.

John Rule was fabulous, he made me laugh and was a great consultant and I loved working with him......I am so sorry for your loss.....

John was one of the best kind of people in the world.  Ian & I count ourselves very lucky to have known him & we are very sorry he left this world so early.  Wherever he is, he'll be making friends & telling hilarious stories.  With love to all his wonderful family.

I'm so sorry to hear that John has died.  We will all miss him,  he touched so many of our lives.  John was such an inspiration, especially to me.
William Ross Wallace once said "Every man dies  - Not every man really lives!"  Well, John showed us all how a man really lives, and for that, we are all enriched!
