A poem for you
To:John and only for you,
Never to see you again
In my dreams
or in my heart.
You don't no how much it means
Never seeing your caring heart.
It feels like a fence between us
separating me... and..you.
Laughing at all the things you do.
Missing that is like,
is like missing a piece in your heart.
Not knowing what faces you,
is horrible just like what happens in the scary world.
I would never had imagined,
this happening to the most caring, loving person only like you.
Not seeing you...again...........
Loving you always in my heart and in my dreams.
seeing you say goodbye to me had never happened i still think you are putting me to be at night,getting all the bad dreams away with on loving kiss.
xoxoxoxoxo always

YOU WERE THE BEST OF THE BEST
John, you were the best of the best. I'll never forget when I was 10 and you showed me how to set up my fishing rod, 20 minutes later I pulled out a rainbow trout and shouted for you to get the net. There are many other great memories.
Will miss you loads and you'll always be in our thoughts along with mum, dad, Hughie, Tony, little Stuart and all the other family members who are with you.
God Bless, Lots of Love Stephen, Jackie, Chloe & Jordan xxx

in loving memory
I met John in Sept 2005 when i came from Canada to be with Paul. I had so much trouble understanding his thick Glasgow accent and he would tease me and laugh as Paul had to translate everything he said. During these 3 years i knew him i adored him and Rita, having lost my mom and dad they became very close family to me. Paul and I lived with John and Rita when we came back from Canada and many times i was in tears with laughter watching John do the silliest things while Rita would stand there and pretend to be mad at him only to burst out laughing with the rest of us. I remember he would wake up early every morning and knock on all our bedroom doors shouting ' if i`m up , everyones up!'. It didn`t sit to well with everyone but that was John, his charater was contagious and you couldn`t help but chuckle. After Paul and i moved next door he would always come over every evening wanting to help Paul out fixing our place. He was a master of everything. I don`t think there was anything John couldn`t do.Many times when he was over he would express how he missed everyone in his life that had passed away ,but particularly his brother Tony and when he could manage to talk about it his son Stuart. It hurt his heart terribly but he knew he must go on. He would also tell Paul and i how much he loved Rita. I`m not sure if she ever knew but he was terribly devoted to her, but at times didn`t know how to show her. He adored all his kids and would tell me how proud he was of them. He lived his life totally with love in his heart for them but not sure if he ever knew how to tell them how he felt. We all have our troubles in life and John had his fair few but i know he was a true gentleman with a heart of gold. His grandkids adored him and my daughter Brittany loved him very much. I know John is up there watching his family helping their hearts through this hard time, his hand outstretched to to guide them and ease their grief. I will never forget you John, there will always be a sadness in my heart for such a soft and gentle soul. Be at rest and peace. Love Jamie
