RIP John. We had some laughs on the job and more in the pub afterwards. Until we meet again my freind, (my round) Slange !

John you were a breath of fresh air at St Joseph's Academy, Kilmarnock. Your smile would light up any room you walked into. We had a get together last Saturday the 11th November and we raised a glass in your memory. It was a pleasure to have known you. The laugh a minute man. May you have been recieved in Heaven half an hour before the devil knew you had died. An Irish Blessing but I'm sure you knew that. Condolences to all your family, friends and acquiescence who had the pleasure of knowing you. My blessings and prayers are yours always.

John, gone but never forgotten. So many memories growing up. RIP

One of life’s true Gentlemen. God Bless and May You RIP xx
