John was a very gentle man he was a Sub Lt in Nootka in 1962 I was an Ordinary Seaman we all had great respect towards him

I was greatly saddened to learn Capt(N) Nethercott passed away. I had the good fortune of working for him as his Executive Assistant when he was the Base Commander in Halifax. Alongside Bill Panteluk, he had a tremendously positive impact in mentoring young naval officers; indeed, he embodied the best qualities we all aspired to. I hope your found memories of him will bring you comfort during this difficult time.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

I accidently sent you a message with no comments. please forgive. So sorry to hear the news. John was a friend, a collegue, and fine naval officer. Please accept my sincere condolences.
