This is a poem that was read out at J-P's funral
My Brother JON-PAUL!
I'm sending you hugs,
Which you 'll never receive,
Your time had come,
You had to leave.
We're all sat here waiting,
Watching the door.
What wouldn't we give,
To see you once more?
You were so full of life,
So much get get up and go.
So very much liked,
By all who you know.
Your heart was as big,
As your size 13 feet,
Willing to help,
Whoever you'd meet.
Sometime you were stupid,
A bit of an ass,
But then you met Becky,
And we watched that phase pass.
My biggest regret,
Is that i never knew,
Not the boy that you were,
But the man that you grew.
You're a friend on my facebook,
THat i'll NEVER delete.
You remain in my heart,
Till again we will meet!
R.I.P little brother
Love always Shelly x

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Speak to me in the easy way which you always used.
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
Extract from a poem by Henry Scott Holland
