Very saddened to learn of the death of John Francis. He and I were best friends as children growing up in the fifties in Townaugh.
We got involved in all kinds of devilment around the village, and he will always be very fondly remembered as a much loved inseparable boyhood friend.
Deepest condolences to his grieving family and wider family and friends.
Wishing you God speed to your final destination .
