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.

Hello
Hi John, it's been a very long time since I last left you any sort of message. This isn't to say I haven't been thinking of you, thoughts of you are never far away. My other half is a bona fide liverpool fan and it in itself is a constant reminder of you :D
I sit and write this to you with tears in my eyes knowing that you are with my Mum. Its been a hard few months and it don't seem to get any easier. Losing my Mum has been the toughest time of my life but your Mum gives me words of comfort which I try so hard to listen to. I know only too well that she understands what I'm going through as she has been through this ... and more but my heart is broken into a million pieces and I feel there will never be a glue that will put it back together.
I hear time is a healer but time can be forever really cant it!?
I do you hope you are still smiling up there John, I am still thinking of you.
I can't get on your bebo to leave you a comment anymore so you'll find me here now :)
Love always x
PS Could you do me a favour .... put your arms around my Mum and give her a hug, tell her its from me and tell her that I love and miss her every day x
hi sweetheart
dad and i miss you so much its unreal
sometimes i find it very hard to keep going the pain never goes away it hurts so much .it was a real bad day yesterday after what happened ,think you might no what i mean if its true what they say that you are always with me in our own special way.love you so much john love you forever xxx
