·

Tributes are flowing today for 58-year-old John Iordanis after he was killed in a multi-car crash along the Southern Expressway in Adelaide, South Australia on Friday, June 28.

Mr Iordanis was driving a green Ford Falcon, one of five vehicles involved in the horror crash that occurred on the Southern Expressway, Huntfield Heights.

The drivers of the other cars were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Mr Iordanis died at the scene, becoming the 44th person to be killed on the state’s roads this year.

His step-daughter Natalie Chown told The Advertiser he was “the most genuine, caring and loving man I have ever known.”

“We can not express how devastated we are,” she said.
