Thinking about you on your 56th Birthday John! Hope you were looking down on Tower Hill today as we were there to comemorate your fantastic contribution to Life here on Earth and without doubt you'll now be doing the same up above! Even so! Wish you were still here with your cracking sense of humour as in that department you were certainly a 'One of' and could never be replaced. Never saw you without a smile or a funny quip. God Bless and always keep you in His care. Grant eternal rest into Him, O Lord, and let Perpetual Light shine upon Him. May He Rest in Peace. Amen. Love always x

MISSED
1-11-1958 – 28-10-2012
WB
One Year ago today my life changed forever,
I got the call to tell me, I had lost you, my only brother,
I wondered if at first, that I had heard it right,
but soon it was confirmed, you had left us in the night.
You departed suddenly from this mortal land,
leaving those that loved you, to travel hand in hand,
I know you left too early John, of that we all agree,
there were so many things we could have done, but alas, it was not to be,
we shall not forget all that you done, for family and many a friend,
and hopefully with the passing of time, those broken hearts shall mend
Your mischievous smile, your charming wit, your' helping hand we shall all remember,
As we raise a glass in memory of you, on your birthday, the first day of November.
Requiescat In Pace.
Love Always
BB

Uncle John

You know I'm never lost for words but there really isn't any to describe how it feels to lose someone you love so much. You were always like a second Dad to me even before I lost my own only just a year before you left us too.

So many happy memories shared by everyone who knew you. Rarely do you meet someone who was loved by all but what wasn't to love? You were so funny, kind and generous, a great father and role model and a loving husband. You and Marion were the happiest couple I have ever known and I hope one day I will find what you had.

Miss you now and forever

A great and true friend my brother in law John. Thanks for the wonderful times we had with your brilliant family. Also the happy times down the pub having a few pints of heavy. Even though you tried to wind me up sometimes I will forever remember your generosity and laughter and such a positive outlook on life. You will always be in my mind especially at the gatherings of our loving family's. Good luck John until we meet again for a chat and a bevvy.

10 months have passed and yet it does nt seem real , I still expect to see you walking through the door and saying "rights what's goin on?" I miss your silly stories and even the wee nips under the arm! You were my dads best friend and my second dad, our lives are not the same but we have to go on in the hope that we will all be together again. Sean misses his golf buddy and visits your bench to share a tipper! Sleep tight and watch over us like I know you would. Love always and forever Donna (sconny) xxxxx

Dad,
I can't believe you're gone. You were our whole world. Everything we have is because of you. What will we do without you? Who can I call for advice, who will be there for me no matter what? Our happy family bubble we lived in has been popped and our life's will never be the same again. I miss your smile, your jokes, your laughs, your big hugs and kisses. I love you so much dad it hurts so bad. If I can bring my boys up the way you did us then they will turn into great men. I only wish you were here to guide them also. Sending you big hugs and kisses from all of us, we cherish the great memories we have of you. Xxxxx love you dad xxxxxxx :(

Uncle J
I never imagined i would be sitting here writing this to you...You were such a great uncle to me and more like another father. We shared so many good times here & in australia. These memories go back to when i was a young boy and will remain with me forever. Every thought and memory is of joy,fun,laughter and your cheeky grin.. You were such a positive influence on me and your kind nature will live on in my heart and mind untill i see you again up above.
You were a man of dignity,positivity and generosity.You are sadly missed by all of us. Though gone physically you are still here in abundance spiritually ...

Always with you and you with me

your everloving nephew Gerard
