John DouglasCONNOR"Scots steel tempered wi' Irish fire." Treasured memories of JOHN DOUGLAS CONNOR of Rutherglen. Passed away suddenly on 24 August 2021. Beloved only son of the late JOHN PATRICK (JACK) CONNOR and HELEN (EILEEN) nee KELLY. Devoted and dearly loved brother of DOROTHY ELLEN CONNOR.

"Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling From glen to glen And down the mountainside The summer's gone And all the roses falling 'Tis you, 'tis you must go And I must bide"

Sleep on soldier. Your work's done. Safely held in angels wings. Until we meet again. Love always, Dorothy

Can't believe it's three years today since I conducted your funeral and nine years since my cancer surgery. Life makes no sense. You were my rock, with me every step of the way. My strength and my safe harbour, my shelter from the storm.

I hope you think I did okay. You had You'll Never Walk Alone, The Gaelic Blessing and The Red Hot Chilli Pipers Flower of Scotland and I read Robert Burns, A Honest Man.. and our family poem All Is Well and the Irish Blessing for Travellers . Everyone said it was beautiful. It has all broken my heart. Thank you for everything, then, now and always. I know I'll never walk alone and you will always be right there by my side holding my hand.

"Underneath the stars I met you,
Underneath the stars I left you
Go gently,
I'm here beneath the stars unending,
Underneath the stars I'm mending
Go gently
Underneath the stars befriending
Go gently,
Go gently"

Love Always, Dotxxx

Three years in Heaven now and you have your Golden Wings.

The best big brother. My strength and my safe harbour, my shelter from the storm.

I am doing my best to keep singin' 'n' dancin' as we always said. I have tried hard to keep all my promises to you.

Miss you every day. Love always, Dorothyxx
