John Donohue sadly passed away on 30th December leaving behind his wife of 39 years Gillian, four children, Siobhan, Antony, Matthew and James and five grandchildren, Callum, Aiden, Rosie, Ethan and Jackson.

Despite being born in Dunlavin, Republic of Ireland in 1940, John lived most of his life in South-East England. John worked as an Operating Department Practitioner (ODP) for much of his life where he is still fondly remembered by colleagues and friends. John loved spending time with his family and always looked forward to family holidays together. He was lucky enough to travel to many places around the world and was always ready for the next adventure. Sport also played a key part of his life, as an avid Tottenham supporter whilst also playing many sports such as football, squash and golf throughout his life.

John will be sadly missed by many but the Donohue family hope that those who knew him will take comfort from the time they spent with him and the many many memories that they shared.
