John Gaffney

Sincere condolence to Tony, Bernie and all the Gaffney family on the sad loss of John. May he rest in peace

So sorry to hear of John's recent death. He was truly one of the best neighbours one could ever have. John and my father, Paddy Hanley, were the best of friends and neighbours for many years. I enjoyed many a great chat with John about our shared interest in 'The Dubs' and music. He was a man I always looked forward to meeting on my visits to 219. A real gentleman in every way. Heartfelt sympathies to the Gaffney family on their loss.

I was very saddened to hear of the passing of my Uncle John.
He was a gentleman true to the word & will be sadly missed by all.

Sincere condolences to all of John's family and friends on his passing. He was a true genuine gentleman and a wonderful caring neighbour. His knowledge and passion for sport especially "The Dubs" will always be remembered along with his wit and caring ways. REST IN PEACE JOHN.

So sorry to hear of John’s passing.
Such a kind and caring man always putting others first. Such fond memories of you always with a song in your heart! A very long time ago you took the time and trouble to write to me with the words to the song “Streets of London” so I had a song in my heart to sing at family sing-a-longs, I’m so pleased I overcame my shyness to sing it the next time I visited Ireland, a real privilege to have known you John, thank you always, may you rest in peace.

John was a lifelong friend of my dear Mam, Peggy. John was the sincerest and most trustworthy person you could ever meet. When my Dad died, John asked Peggy out & he was such a special friend to her, John gave her a reason to smile again & get back to enjoying life, Thanks so much, John for all you did for Mam, you really were 'Simply the best'. There was always a welcome in the house for Mam & I from John's
