My deepest condolences to you, Julia, Pat & your entire family. I am pleased to have shared many sets with John when we both danced in Danvers. He was a true gentleman on the dance floor, always helpful and courteous. He made others better.
Thank you very much John. You will be truly missed.

A fine son of Doolin, with the strongest connection, a great ear for traditional Irish music and amazing set dancing skills.
I especially loved his ability to tell a story about my Dad from the mid 1940's like it happened last week. I will hold those stories close to my heart forever.
John .. rest easy my cousin ... you will be greatly missed.
All my love and sincere condolences to the family
XOXO
