And more often than not, he was my source of strength and clarity.“John’s optimism and strength was on a level I have never experienced.“For six and a half years, I watched him battle through a hideous cancer diagnosis, be delivered set back after set back and still choose to act with courage and gratitude right until the very end.“John may not be physically earthside anymore, but I know that the beautiful light of his soul — the one that radiated through that charming smile of his — is something I can look for when I need guidance and comfort.Former Home and Away star Johnny Ruffo with Tahnee Sims.
