Funeral Notice

On 29/10/2026 John completed his life’s journey which began on 17/02/1964 having lived in Galway all his life except for his time in England. Mourned and deeply loved by his mother Barbara, brother Pat, sister Mary and her husband Declan Kelly, aunts Esther and Kitty, Uncle Dominic, nieces and nephews, relatives and friends.

Although we were not on your final journey which you took alone and in silence we will never forget your kind heart, caring nature, and music. Every act of kindness you showed, every bit of care you gave, and every note you played on your guitar remains with us. You are not forgotten John, and you never will be. Rest In Peace

The bond remains, though the journey has ended
