Knighted in 2011 only weeks after his retirement from the helm of the Todd Corporation, the business leader was also one of the country's top philanthropists as well as a leading patron of the arts, and chairman of his famously private family's charitable Todd Foundation.
Sir John, 88, died at his Wellington home last night after a period of ill health.
Sir John was President of the Rotary Club of Wellington in 1979-80, he was made a Paul Harris Fellow in 1990 and received a Sapphire pin to his PHF in 2010.
