I knew John Allen Garth during the period between 1982 to 1993. When I met him he worked at CIG as the National Security Manager. He had already left the force for some time. He mentioned he was in charge of Wollarah. His close friend and one time partner was Allen Whittaker. Allen passed away 2 yrs later than John. John was a very interesting character with a sharp intellect and a hawk eye for detail. I’m richer by far for having known him.

I knew John Garth as my Dads Friend when he worked at CIG GASES with my dad. I became friends with John when i started working at CIG GASES as well. I met John a few occasions at the Sydney International Motor Show Darling Harbour. He was a happy go lucky bloke who i liked being around.
I knew John over a period of 10 yrs. His birth date was 22nd May. He was not in the Police Force when we met in 1982, he was National Security Man for CIG. He was a very intelligent charming man. Very thoughtful and kind. Definitely the richer for knowing him.
