The obituary notice of John (Jock) RENTOUL

Lifelong friends, Lesley, Bill and myself, travelled all over the continent on many many happy holidays, hundreds of photographs, all smiling and memorable, miss you so much John xxx,,,Veronica.

As a spraypainter in my third year apprenticeship 49 years past I first did work for John. In 1983 a redundancy situation created an opportunity at Doune respraying the fleet.
Jock suggested I should apply for my HGV provisional and learn off the old drivers. I did, and passed my test then went on to driving trucks for a living which I did nearly 40 years.
Jock gave me that opportunity, which was the start of work experience for which I am eternally grateful.

My father and he were friends.I first met him at Doune Motors in the 70s.Great times.
Our paths crossed through the years.A pleasant man and we always had a wee chat.
Condolences to the family.
Colin Bell.
