JohnCONROYIt is with great sadness that the family of John, formerly of Ashington and Felton, announces his passing peacefully on September 18th, aged 78.
His kindness, big heart and witty sense of humour will be sorely missed. He was the long-time partner of Lynn Armstrong and father to Oliver and Zoe.
Folks may remember him from Lynmouth Colliery, tinkering with his car, fixing bikes, going fishing, making hookie wool rugs, playing a harmonica, guitar or penny whistle, and singing in his beautiful baritone voice.
To honour his wishes, there will be no funeral service.
Special thanks to all the staff at Meadow Park Care Home and Palliative Care at Wansbeck Hospital, Sybil and Philip and family who have been supportive.
Please keep the stories alive and toast to his memory on October 14th.
Keep me informed of updates
