Oom Johan, My hart is ongelooflik seer om oom vandag te moet groet. Julle is vêr, maar ek het nog altyd geglo/geweet ons sal mkkaar weer sien. Hierdie uitkoms het ek nooit oorweeg nie… My woorde is min. Dankie vir alles. Oom het diep spore in my lewe gelaat, indrukke gemaak wat ek nooit sal vergeet nie. Ek was nog jonk, maar wat Mea & Talia vandag verwoord het, is wat ek beleef het. Tot ons mekaar weer sien...

Johan. I celebrate you and the life that you led here on Earth. You certainly added value to those around you. When I reflect on Johan I think quality guy. Kind, caring, generous, warm hearted, strong but gentle, honest, funny and real also spring to mind. He was/is one of those guys I’d always hope to run into, up on the track at AUT Millennium or when walking in Browns Bay. Time with him always left me happy and wanting more. I regret not having you around for a braai Johan. I hope you’re leading the track team in heaven my friend.

An awesome man taken too early. We will all miss you Johan, and you great chats. You made an impact to everyone you encountered and we are all better for it. Our family extends our deepest sympathies to you in this time of mourning. May the Lord heal you and keep you in His eternal light. Mel, Mehane and Talia - you have a community to support you. Lots of love Vanita, Sham, Mika and Riley

Amazing husband, father and man. I will forever remember his 'hellos' always standing, always the firmest, most generous, enthusiastic handshake - and that smile. You will be missed by many Johan.

Johan you were taken from this world far too soon and will missed by us all. The world will not be the same without you in it. Rest in peace friend x All our love, Brad, Vernie, Connor and Chloé

Johan we started our dental journey in New Zealand together, sitting side by side for almost 8 years, I am not sure where to sit now, but I will cherish our laughs and chats forever, what a team we where! You had such a good heart, and this showed in every patient you treated. Everyone was treated with love and respect. You are going to be so very missed and have left a massive hole in our hearts but I know you are resting well now.

Perry my maat... Hoe se mens totsiens aan ñ ware legende. Jy het diep spore in ons lewe getrap wat niemand ooit sal kan vul nie. Jy was en sal altyd my vriend en mentor wees. Skiet, jag, gym en cartoons sal nooit weer dieselfde wees nie. Mis jou klaar vrek baie. Baie dankie vir al die great tye en herinneringe wat nooit vergeet sal word nie. Baie liefde, Perry (Theo) Johan diep spore het jy in baie mense se lewens gelos. Dankie vir d groot rol wat jy in Theo se lewe gespeel het, en vir die mens wat jy was. Legend gone but never forgotten. Jy leef voort in almal se hart. Melany, Talia en Mehané sterkte vir julle deur hierdie moeilike tyd. Baie liefde, Mandeli

Liewe Oom Johannie Dit is ‘n groot hartseer om my oom te groet. Ons (die Schultzies) het oom baie gemis en baie uitgesien om oom weer te sou sien. Ek kan net dankbaar wees vir al die goeie herinneringe wat ons as kinders gehad het met oom. Ons gaan oom baie mis. Rus sag oom Johannie 🕊❤️

Johannie woorde is nie daar om te beskryf hoe baie jy gemis gaan word nie. Jy was een ongelooflike baas, mentor en natuurlik my enigste en beste swaer. Jy het so baie beteken vir my en die kinders. Ons sal mooi kyk na Mel en die kids.. Rus sag in God se hande. Tashie ,Lianthe Anrike en Erich.

In loving memory of you, Dr. Johan van Roon, A friend and healer who left us too soon. A husband to Mel, a father of two, His kindness and care in all that he'd do. Through laughter and tears, you touched every soul, Your legacy of love continues to console. Though you are no longer with us, your spirit remains, In our hearts, your memory forever sustains. - with Love, John

When I received the email about your passing, I cried. I may not know you personally but now we surely have connection. As long as I have these implants, you will always be remembered. Thank you for keeping me at ease during my appointment. I am very grateful of how gentle you were with everything. May you rest in peace and let perpetual light shine upon you Doc!

I still can’t believe you are gone, what an amazing friend you were. I first met you when you had just landed here in New Zealand and I was your dental assistant, we had so many good chats - I was teaching you our ‘kiwi’ slang words so you would bond with the local patients. You still used these funny phrases to this day :) You will be greatly missed by your patients and what an amazing person you were. Thank you for the memories Johan, they will live on forever! Much love to your beautiful girls xx

Awww such a beautiful photo 🤍 Johan.. such a beautiful man with the most beautiful soul.. The most amazing husband, the most incredible father and a wonderful friend to so many. Your family is a ripe reminder of what we all should aspire too. Your connection, your commitment and your love for your girls and Mel was something so special to see. Without even knowing it you really did show the world how to be a wonderful person. You have touched so many lives whether they met you for a short time or a long time friend, you made such an impression in many lives. Rest in peace Johan, your light will forever shine bright here 🕯️

Die lewe maak draaie wat ons nooit Sal verstaan. Ek het by Dr Johan en Dr Evena begin werk toe Ek nog op skool was in 1992, naskool, Saterdae en vakansies. By die praktyk het my liefde vir Tandheelkunde begin. Hul het my als geleer van asissteer, ontvangs, x-strale neem, modelle giet en soveel meer…. In 2019 het ek weet die geleentheid gehad om saam Dr Johan te werk in NZ. Dr Johan het so Mooi hart en praat mens altyd moed in. Ek is dankbaar dat ek die geleentheid gehad het. Want die lewe se draaie ken ons nie. Sterkte aan Melanie en twee dogters ❤️🙏🏼🫶

Those we love and lose are always connected by heartstrings into infinity. Johan you will be missed. Our condolences to your loving wife and beautiful daughters, family & friends.

Liewe Johan N goeie man en n wonderlike pa en n roll model vir baie jy was altyd net smiles en altyd nice en almal altyd welkom laat voel jy Los diep spore in ons hart as ook in die wereld jy het ons te vinnig verlaat Maar dis om dat die Hemel weer n goeie soldaat Nodig het en jy kla jou inpack op die wereld gemaak het ons Sal altyd net nog een Keer saam jou wou he Maar die Hemel het jou geroep en ons Sal nooit verstaan Maar ons Sal altyd op kyk na die sterre en weet jy is daar en kyk af op ons Sal jou mis rus in vrede gone but never forgotten

Johan, my student, kollega, vriend en bo alles jagmaat. Ek het baie by jou geleer. Jy het 'n moeilike pad geloop die laaste klomp jaar, alles ter wille van jou "Girls". My hart is seer. Ek gun jou die ewige rus, maar jou plek is leeg. Ek gaan jou mis, veral op die eland spoor.

Ons het nie Johan baie goed geken soos die res nie. Maar hy was altyd n aangename mens om mee te praat. Altyd vriendelik gewees. En jou altyd welkom laat voel. Die kere wat ons in Heidelberg gekom het was dit altyd aangenaam om hallo te kan sê. Melanie, en kinders. Onthou dat hy miskien in vlees nie meer daar is nie. Maar hy is niks verder as n gedagte weg nie en hy is waar sy hemel vir hom was. By julle. Rus in vrede Johan.

Swaerie, Dankie vir die goeie tye en lag wat ek saam jou kon beleef. Dankie vir die cool swaer wat jy was. Rus sag by Liewe Jesus se voete, gaan jou mis swaerie. Ek groet jou nou met ons spesiale groet “Skêr pappa”. Liefde Laine’tjie 😭💔

You have touched so many lives in so many different ways with your fun loving, caring and joyful personality. We will always remember you with that infectious smile. May God keep you and may your soul rest firmly in God’s forever loving hands. Rest in peace dear friend
