Dr. John Ryan passed away unexpectedly near
his home in Tugun, Queensland, Australia, on Sunday March 12,
2017.
Loved and will be missed by all of his
extended family, companions, friends and
colleagues.
John was known, admired and greatly
respected around the world as an academic, a member of the legal
fraternity and as a raconteur. A native of Bathurst, NB,
Canada, his career began as a Beaverbook Scholar. He went on
to become a Law Lecturer (Queen’s University, Belfast), Dean
of Law (University of Canterbury), Head of School of Taxation and
Business Studies (University of New South Wales) and Barrister at
Law.
John subsequently enjoyed a long and happy
retirement with his “pals” in his beachside community in
Queensland. Our Thanks to John’s friends and
neighbours, Queensland Police and medical staff at the Gold Coast
University Hospital.
He is survived by one brother, Dr. J.A. Ryan
of San Diego, CA and several nieces and nephew. He was
pre-deceased by his siblings: Sheila Harper, Mary Burns
and Charles Pat
Ryan.
Family funeral and cremation has
taken place in Queensland,
Australia.
Nos plus sincères sympathies à la famille et aux amis de Dr. John Ryan.source
