John D. Monaghan

They say it gets easier as time goes by. I miss you now more than ever ❤

I am an Occupational Therapy student that had the honor of working with John during his stay at St. Luke's Hospital. John touched my heart and is someone that I will always remember. I like to think of him now free to (physically) do whatever he wants, with no limitations, and no discomfort. To John's mom, wife and Carmella, (and of course other family members with whom I did not meet) my thoughts and prayers are with you through your mourning. I am so sorry for your loss.
Sincerely,

Mrs.Monaghan,MaryTheresa, Lizzy, Carmella and Patrick,
In true McShane fashion I wait until the last possible day to make an entry into John's guest book. Mary, I feel like i have known your family forever.

Ms Monaghan, Mary Theresa, Lizzie, Carmie and Patrick, I was so saddened to hear of Johnnies passing. He was my one true friend during high school. If my car was ever broke, he knew how to fix it! He could fix anything, even my broken heart after a break up with a boyfriend. Thats why I know he does not want us to be sad. We should rejoice in knowing that he is in heaven probobly surronded by old Dodge Darts making them run again! We prayed for Johnnies healing, but sometimes God answers...

Dear Mary T. and family:
Un abrazo muy fuerte desde Argentina. Los queremos mucho.

I was so saddened to hear about John's passing. We were neighbors and friends at a very early and formative part of our lives, and I well remember the days we spent playing out behind the old farmhouse, taking imaginary trips in the old Ford Model T pickup; chasing Martians (we were sure they existed and were watching our every move!); putting together a circus (with Patrick, Carmella, Lizzie, Mary Theresa, and "Dixie") to entertain our parents; and gathering around the TV to watch "Dark...

To Johnny, that your life has been completed with happiness and joy with your family and Friends, that God will lead you down his path and welcome you into his Kingdom where you will rest and finally find peace from your suffering. To my Godfather,Uncle, and Friend- may you always remember me and remember how much I love you and miss you.

Grammy, God has blessed me with you and all my wonderful aunts and Uncles, May God bless all of you with Relief of sadness and a little fun to...

John,
I will always remember you as a big-hearted, good natured guy. Always fun to be around. You were a great mechanic and were always working on you 'fleet' of cars. I know you are in heaven now. Make sure you have a beer with Schultzy and my Pop. God bless.

My deepest sympathies to Lizzy and the Monaghan Family.
