In loving memory of John James Paul Connolly who sadly passed away on 2nd December 2017
A loving, caring, and generous Dad, Grandad, Brother and friend. Lived life to the full and thrived on time with those around him up to the very end of life.
Was never bitter with what he was going through and as he put it, never far from a smile.
Will leave a hole in so many lives, but we were all lucky to have a share in the time he was with us.
Dad asked for no flowers at his funeral, but donations to cancer research, I have set a page up on here for ease. Love to all.

John, sadly we did not have the privilege of knowing you for all that long, but in the time since we first met you we so much enjoyed your company. You were such a nice man, so kind, so
friendly, and so bloody funny! We will miss you greatly. Rest in peace.

Very sad hear about John. I saw firsthand the passion he had to do something about this dreadful disease. A very likeable, fun-loving and courageous guy.

John, I know you are listening. When I visited you on the many occasions that we spoke,you never once complained. We had a a good old chat like the times we had in The Gate, sorting out the Worlds problems as you do. You faced the horrible inevitability of your illness with a dignity that was an inspiration to us all. It was a pleasure knowing you my friend. RIP.

John as I will always remember you... A great man, great Father, Grandfather and a truly great friend... You will never be forgotten! Jackie xx
I loved this pic when John put it up on Facebook. It shows his fun side xx
My first match with dad was on 10/02/1990. Fittingly, our last match together was against Sheffield Wednesday in 2017. It was an amazing day. A 2-0 win. A few beers, some food and after the game, dad met one of his favourite villa players- Tony Morley.
Dad with Dexter. Taken 23/04/16. During the second round of chemo. Wish always trying to crack a laugh and build a strong bond with both the boys. They loved him. He was a great grandad
Dad with Harrison. Mid part of 2015. Live this photo. As does Harrison!!
One of my last photos of dad. Taken from the first time he went in to the hospice. Although a sick man, he sunk about 6 pints the day after this was taken and was told to be more quiet. I loved that about dad. Was all about having a good time. X
