Words, Words are not enough
For me to say how much I miss you
You, flew away too soon
I feel so alone not with you
But when I close my eyes
Every night
I hear your voice like an angel
And you're here again by my side
I swear I hear your words
They sing through me
And I'm back where I belong
You are here even though you are gone
You're here, everywhere I go
Deep inside my heart forever....

May the sun always shine on your face forever Love you Naught x

The worse thing about friends is having them leave especially if we know we have seen them for the very last time, we will miss not having your input to the tipping game each week so until we met again may the sun always shine on you John

we were trying to think of a word that would remind us of John and his lovely sense of humour. We came up with "naughty". We have heard him say this so many times - always with a smile.
Thinking of you in this time of great sadness

Those we love don't go away
They walk beside us every day
Unseen, unheard, but always near
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
A loving brother and friend.
Our Saturdays are never going to be the same.
May the sun shine warm upon your face Johnny forever.

O’SULLIVAN, John Laim:
On May 27, 2016, after an epic battle. Loved brother, brother-in-law and uncle of Terry, Tanya, Jamie, Sammy and Baileigh. John loved his rugby, racing and the odd beer. Many a night was spent in pursuit of these with lots of laughter and good memories. Travel well my friend.
