John David Wilson

John David Wilson passed into the presence of his Saviour on March 14 in his 75th year after living for 17 years with cancer. Beloved husband of 51 years of Gloria; much loved by sons Jonathan (Tracey), Malcolm (Shakira), and Iain (Selvy), and 11 grandchildren. John will be greatly missed by his family and friends around the world, including the Yali of West Papua, Indonesia, with whom John worked for many years, and by whom he is much loved. John translated the Bible, together with two Yali colleagues, into the Yali language.
