MARKS John Fitzroy (Windgates, Bray, Co. Wicklow) - As we approach the First Anniversary (November 18) of our dearly loved husband, Dad, Dandan, brother and father-in-law, Patricia, Garry, Tim, Josh, Robbie, Katie, Elizabeth, Kelly and Katherine would like to express our sincere appreciation and heartfelt thanks to our extended family, our wonderful neighbours and friends for their kindness and support during John's illness, at the time of his passing and indeed this past year. Words cannot say how much your 'being there' meant to us. A special word of thanks to the health care nurses from Greystones, the palliative care nurses and the doctor and nurses at the Blackrock Hospice. To Rev. Baden Stanley, your support meant so much to us and we want to thank you and the choir of Christ Church for making John's funeral so special. Thank you to all who attended the funeral, particularly those who travelled from afar. The many wonderful letters, floral tributes, Mass cards and sympathy cards were so numerous that it is not possible to reply to each one individually, therefore we hope you will accept this acknowledgement as a 'big thank you' for all your friendship, kindness and continuous support.We miss you John.
Till we meet again,
may you have fair winds and
following seas.
