In loving memory of John Lawson (Dutch) Mulholland who sadly passed away on 22nd February 2016 aged 55 years. The dearly loved husband of Louise and father of Jennifer, David and Heather. Also the much loved son of Billy and Helen and a treasured brother.

At the reception the sharing of memories will be encouraged, so if you have any treasured photos of John/Dutch please do bring a copy so it can be put on display.
IN LIEU OF FLOWERS THERE WILL BE A DONATION PLATE AVAILABLE FOR THOSE WHO WISH TO CONTRIBUTE TO A MORE PERMANENT AND FITTING TRIBUTE TO JOHN.
I briefly knew Dutch when I was posted (my first posting) to RAF Kinloss in 1984. I only knew Dutch for a short time but I was struck by the decency and honesty of the man, he left a positive impression upon me. Such a sad loss and my thoughts are with Dutch's family, a true gent.
I've only just heard this terribly sad news and my thoughts are with Louise.
Dutch was a big part of my life as a young lad out in Germany. I always remember him coming in the Police Club with his dog Alfie (I think) when I was barman on the pretence that he was out giving him some much needed exercise! I'm so sorry I wasn't able to pay my respects on the 7 March but I shall raise a glass to Dutch tonight and remember all the good times.
Thank you for your comforting messages and memories of John either here or by card or petsonally on the 7th. We were and still are overwhelmed by the attendence and support. Louise and family
So sorry I couldn't make the funeral, our thoughts are with you all xx
So sorry I could not make it today, but my thoughts were with you all today. A goo

Dutch was a great Mentor to me and many more, not only in the RAFP but in Life as well. We all have many fond memories of him turning up late in the Police Club, throwing his tuppence-worth into whatever "discussions" were going on and sitting back and watching the carnage develop. A master of the wind up - must be the Norn Irn in him.
Such a privilege to have known Dutch and his family, who all attended my wedding at RAF Bruggen in 93.
Great memories, thanks.
RIP Dutch, Stand Easy
Such happy memories when we saw you both at Lacock in December and great memories from our time at RAF Kinloss. Such sad news our love and thoughts go to Louise and family. RIP John
Gone but not forgotten,
Although we are apart,
Your spirit lives within me,
Forever in my heart.
No farewell words were spoken,
No time to say goodbye,
You were gone before we knew it,
And only God knows why.
If Love could have saved you,
You would have lived forever.
All my Love and RIP.
Your wee sister Patricia x
