John Dooley

Dear Liz and Johns family, we're very sorry for the passing of John. We watched super garden , were rooting for ye and so happy ye won! We were in bloom on the Saturday ; the garden was beautiful and you came over to talk to us Liz , telling us John was chatting to his sister at the back . When John came over , even though he was in great demand, he had loads of time to answer my two boys questions and when Ruben asked him where was the hedgehog highway! , John let him and his brother Riaan go into the garden to have a look around! They were delighted! , were impressed by the covered clothes dryer and told him so after! . Thank you for your kindness , hope the beauty of the garden helps you along Liz

Sincere Condolences to to Liz and all the Dooley family on the sad passing of John May he RIP.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of John’s passing. I watched you both on super garden and wanted to let you know that John had inspired me to plant some pollinator friendly plants this year, I’m new to gardening!
John designed and built a beautiful garden but it was your love, kindness, support and friendship towards each other that won the nations hearts. You were clearly soulmates.I hope getting out into your own garden will bring you strength because no doubt John will be close by.
Rest in peace in the garden of heaven dear John.
I will be praying for you Liz, take care.

Heartfelt condolences to Liz and all who loved John. We watched you on supergarden and we were so thrilled that John's garden won. It was fabulous and he was a very deserving winner. He has inspired us to buy pollinator friendly plants and flowers and plants that will attract bees. I cried when I heard he had died suddenly. It would be lovely if he got to stay longer in this world as he was so obviously loved by you Liz and he had so much to offer. He clearly touched many hearts and inspired many. We could all learn from him by not getting wrapped up in material things and just treasure and enjoy the beauty of nature around us. We hope all your wonderful memories of this incredible man will be a comfort to you all in the times ahead. No doubt you will miss him forever but he will be forever in your hearts and you will feel his presence in his beautiful garden. May your beloved John rest in peace in his heavenly home. Sending you huge hugs.

Heartfelt condolences to you Liz & John’s family. I got to know ye like so many through Supergarden, ye were the epitome of a loving couple, sincere, genuine & hardworking. What a beautiful dream ye both realised before John’s untimely passing. Ye both touched the hearts of the nation. Liz, I hope you can feel that love & strength & it will be of some small consolation without your beloved John.

So sorry to hear of John's passing. I was delighted he won Super Garden. Such a lovely humble man. Condolences to all the family

Rip John. Although I didn’t go to bloom this year I followed you on super garden on the tv. You were a gentleman and condolences to you Liz on your loss.

I was so sad to hear of the passing of John. I only knew him from winning Super Garden, What a lovely man, l was so delighted his beautiful garden won. May God Rest his Gentle Soul. Sincere sympathy to his loving wife and family.

This is my second condolence message to you Liz and to John’s family. I hope you are all doing as well as possible. I watched John’s funeral online and was glad to learn more about this man whom I call Father Earth. Lovely to hear about John’s family background, growing up and his adult life in that extraordinary eulogy by a Michael. I could have listened to it all day. You did John very proud with that send off. I was very moved and I can’t even imagine how very very proud you must all be of him. What an incredible, good man. I feel blessed to now know about his goodness in the world. I can’t get over him creating a prayer area at the church and sowing a tree to remember Covid victims. Words fail me. I keep telling people I meet to look up his Super Garden appearances and tributes on RIP so that their lives may be as enriched as mine has been by “meeting” John from afar. I feel sure John will continue to look out for you all and never again will any of you walk alone, particularly you Liz. Mind yourselves. Xx

Condolences to you Liz on the death of your lovely husband John. I was heartened to see that John's dream was achieved so close to his death. The garden designed by John was beautiful and will give joy to those who will get to experience it when installed in its final location. After watching the TV show , I was overjoyed that the unassuming and proud man was announced the 2024 winner of the RTE garden show.
Johns garden design will inspire many. I was shocked upon hearing of John's passing. Prayers and love to you Liz. Rest in peace lovely man. A man who has been taken from this world far too soon. 🙏

I was so shocked and saddened to hear of John’s sudden death. My heart goes out to Liz and John’s family.

Heaven’s Garden

There's a beautiful garden in Heaven,
And some fine day we'll be there:
Each flower is sweetest perfection,
With beauty beyond our compare.

And there in the midst of that garden,
The most perfect flower of all:
Jesus, the sweet Rose of Sharon,
The Savior of all who would call.

He is the delight of the garden,
Most perfect in every way;
His is the sweetest aroma,
That scents the entire bouquet.

His perfume is found in that garden,
His beauty will there be displayed;
His flowers will bloom there forever,
Their beauty will not spoil or fade.

His perfume is the prayer of believers,
His beauty is in hearts that love,
His flowers are the souls of the faithful,
Who are gathered for the garden above.

And there in that heavenly garden,
When Jesus the Lord calls us home,
We each will bloom forevermore---
Oh, come, Lord Jesus! Come!

We loved watching John and his wife Liz on Super Garden, we were so thrilled he won the show and got the chance to fulfil his dream. A kind, genuine man, full of love and admiration for his lovely wife. Rest in peace John.

Heartfelt condolences to Liz and all of John's family at this very sad time. We were rooting for John to win Super Garden. As well as a beautiful, thoughtful and sustainable garden, it was a love story. I met John at Bloom on Thursday. He was such a lovely, gentle, unassuming human being. Suaimhneas síoraí dó.

Liz watched you and your beloved John on T.V. and was so pleased when you got to Bloom. The love you shared was so sincere and was so obvious, lovely humble people and John was so confident about his garden, the judges didn't phase him! So sad that John has passed away. Mind yourself. Rest easy John in your heavenly garden.

Deepest sympathy to Johns Family. Best Garden on the Show and a lovely man

There are no words at this time Liz … other than to express that I am deeply sorry for the loss of your dear John …your love of each other was evident and beautiful and I have no doubt that what you both did at Super garden and getting to Bloom was the dream of you both and you did it together and were together until the natural world and John coincided.
