Thinking of you all during this Sad time.. Its hard to believe how our paths crossed over the years.. The lovely gentleman whom I served many a pint too who welcomed me into his home. They say Ireland is small, imagine my surprise when we randomly met in my home village of Clane, few good evenings spent in his company.. Then the years pass and I walk into a pub in Clonmel and OMG who do I meet only John again.. Over the years I would receive an odd phone call, generally looking for advice.. But life and family take over the years and learn John is back in Northampton with his family.. Lovely to know his final years were spent with his family. May John Rest in Peace x Amanda.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
