John lived in Bangor, Co.Down. He moved there with his parents after spending his childhood in Holywood where he made many of his lifetime friends. He attended Sullivan Upper School where his popularity grew and he became well known, as his ever lasting smile touched hearts of the people that he met. John worked in a restaurant in Holywood for a few years and had recently changed jobs although he was waiting for a letter from the police force with regards to a job that he had applied for. Unfortunately he never received that letter and it arrived after his passing, he had been offered what he had been looking for.
John was the tender age of 19 when he lost his life in a car accident. The car he was driving left the road and struck a lamp post on the rainy night of 19th October 2006. He left behind a devastated Mother and Father and being the youngest of six he has left behind five broken hearted sisters, also a girlfriend of 2 years.
John was a very keen footballer playing whenever he could. Liverpool was his team and he was ecstatic when they won the Champions League for the 5th time. His dream was to play for Liverpool and probably would have had his dream come true, as he had already been scouted by some of the top teams in the country.
John’s funeral took place on the morning of 24th of October 2006. It was probably the biggest funeral the town had ever seen, with over 600 people in attendance. This in itself showed the amount of lives John had touched and each in their own special way. Due to the enormity of the funeral there was an article in the local paper where he was described by his parents as an ‘always smiling’ John.
He was such a kind, caring, loving and friendly person, no one will ever be his equal.
