John Garland, a Season Ticket Holder from
Drumaness died suddenly on 15/04/2015,
aged 74.
John leaves a wife
Mary, daughters
Bronagh and
Hilary, son Séan
and brother Paddy.
He was a sports
enthusiast and a
keen Down GAA
fan. John was a
frequent visitor to
Kingspan Stadium
over the years and took up his first season
ticket this year. He loved going to Ulster
games and was very much looking forward
to the Leinster and Munster fixtures.
Those who met John, will remember
what a great character he was, he always
enjoyed a friendly chat with people. John
will be dearly missed by those who knew
and loved him, in particular his very close
family. John could be best described as a
man who would have went out of his way to
help anyone, and he has left his family and
others with only happy memories.
