✦ Synopsis

Dr DM Wayte writes: John Gordon Benstead died on January 13th 1987 at the age of 65 shortly after retirement from a distinguished career as a forensic and clinical pathologist based at Southport. John's ebullient and extrovert personality shielded a very sincere, shy and cultural man. The carnation in the buttonhole and the morning suit were his outward marks-the considered opinion, the wide knowledge, the kindness, the friendliness and the enormous appetite for all matters forensic, were the inner evidence of the complete forensic expert.
