The family moved to kilmarnock in 2004 John went to mount carmel primary for a year then he went to St.Josephs Academy.John left school at 16 and a half just before he passed he started training with tiger games. It was a shock and still deeply is for us to find that he passed away at home at the age of 18 he was fit and healthy no reason was found for johns death so they put it down as SADS. He was a truly precious to all his family and he can never be replaced. John was a quiet boy who was never any trouble he was a good help around the house and with his brothers and sisters,although he could also be a bit of a torment at times with his siblings. John had a good sense of humour and liked a laugh and a joke you would call him a bit of a prankster.He was forever scaring me with his hamster which has just died strangely enough he stopped eating after john passed and would just bite anyone who went near it. John was a good natured boy and a good hearted boy and to his family and friends he will always be something special people like john are hard to find and he is missed so much. He was gone far too soon and we never got a chance to say goodbye.
