This is John's son, and unfortunately John passed away due to heart failure on the 27th of June. I would like to thank everybody who helped him on the website over the last four years of his illness, as it brought him great comfort.

I've been looking back over some of his posts. Strikes me as someone with their heart in the right place, ready to share the humourous side of life but also very brave.

You must have many wonderful memories of him to help you and your family at this difficult time for you.

I add my condolences.

Dear Johns' son, Im very sorry to learn this news. Im one that believes in signs that keep us going. For example, prior to my father passing post quadruple bi pass at 67 yo. we often walked together & very often he would see pennies on the ground. After he passed, I started finding pennies too & 99% of the time when I really needed to feel I wasn't alone. He just marked 25 years since & I now smile vs wail when I see them feeling the warmth. I do hope you will feel his ( your dads') warmth til you are together again. Much love & blessings to you & your family . God Bless John 🙏🌹💝 ( Stefi )

Boohbette17 I do hope your dad finds more treasures where he is now. I read that finding pennies is something to do with an angel watching over you. In you case,that could well be your dad. I seem to be 'wjred'to spot a penny on the ground and yet my eyesight is not that good. I suspect it is something to do with being drawn to something in perfect shape, yet something as simple as a circle. A circle of course has no end. And it is our hope that we will meet our loved ones again. Seeing pennies on the ground is a manifestation of that hope.

How lovely of you to think of letting everyone know at such a sad time, You have me deepest sympathy. This forum reminds us regularly that no matter how much doctors fight to help us, it's inevitable that our bodies eventually wear out. I remember your father saying no more could be done. I hope his passing was gentle and pain free. He will live on in your memories.

Sympathy and Condolences to you and John's family. May your God surround you with his love and peace, comforting you all and giving you assurance that John is in a happy and pain-free place and is still watching over you all. May your happy memories comfort you and give you times of smiles and laughter to ease your current sadness and pain, and feelings of an empty place at your side. In the last post i saw from him it was clear that he loved you all very much, and was pleased that he was sharing his last few months surrounded by his family. Take care of each other and continue to share your memories of him always. There will be difficult days for you all at various times and you will always miss him, but the heartache does ease with time and it will get easier to cope with him gone. Keep believing too, like he did, that one day you will meet again.
