John in the words of his sister Ann:
My brother was a very special person to me and i cannot explain the pain and hurt i am going through. He had the cheekiest smile and the biggest heart I have ever known, if i had one wish it would be to bring him back, as he was taken from us far to quickly life will never be the same. This wasn't supposed to happen we were suppose to grow old together and relive our memories. And i no you all have your own memories of my little bro, who had a wicked sense of humor and loved a good laugh. I could go on forever about how special he is but there isn't enough words to say how I am feeling. Miss you lots already little bro, love you always now and forever. R.I.P. my little bro.xxx xxx

John in the words of his nephew AJ:
Loads to say really my uncle john was a top guy he meant more to me than just an uncle he was a good mate, always some one to text or call if i had a problem, one of the last things he done to me was take the piss, but i wasn't going to say much back couldn't be arsed with the slap around the head! despite him calling me shorty all my life until i grew taller than him his jokes were funny but when i thought shorty had gone another 1 came along " lurch" that done my head in, ha ha but I'll let him off. uncle john has done loads for me in the past helped me through schools, college and joining the RN i will miss him not being able to come and see me on my passing out parade but he'll be there in spirit. i was proud of him and proud to call him my uncle he is a great role model in every way i would love to grow up like him. he achieved so much in his life and will be missed by 100's. i hope my uncle john will rest in peace love him and will miss him lots x

Its been 3 years big man, it still doesn't seem real, not sure it ever will. Just makes me angry knowing we were playing football a couple of months before, the smiling and laughter even playing against each other will always stay with me.

anyway, just a little message.

When I miss you, sometimes I listen to music or look at pictures of you, not to remind me of you but to make me feel as if I'm with you. It makes me forget the distance and capture you.

Love you always big man

Just a thought...

I've just popped on your memorial John..
And I am sending you some love..
For a special Angel..
In heaven above.

You are greatly missed..
By your family below
Why God took your hand..
They will never know.

You were loved so much..
And nobody could compare
For you are a special Angel..

Gone, but not forgotten
This pain, I cannot hide
In memory, I see you
A million tears, I've cried.

The tender thoughts you left me
Come to my memory
Your loving smile, so precious
Will always be with me

lots of love from trish & chris x x

Hey :)

Can't believe its been 2 years - I remember the day when we first met...It was in the Whalley Pub, 3 years ago. I still remember your face and your happy smile. You made me cry with laughter.

Its sad to know that it will never happen again, that I won't be able to hear your awful jokes, but although I didn't get the chance to get to know you properly, i knew you well enough to know how special you were and how much you meant to everybody. Thats the memory I will always carry of you.

Today of all days, people have stopped to remember you, your kind and loving nature and your fantastic smile.

I hope you are in peace and you are sadly missed by friends and family.

Till I hear your laugh again, RIP John xx
