John O’Neill

Happy Birthday dear brother. I have had to create another login to this site, just like you often said, the technology beat me today but I had to get my message down to remember you on your birthday x i am adding some special photos too, from your early start digging on the beach in Yorkshire, through the years to family holidays, O'Neill siblings creating their masterpieces in the garden of the family home - watched by a neighbour's child who appears to be doing nothing at all....(and where I am planting a special tree for your birthday when the wind drops enough for it to survive....!) to your landing in San Francisco and your return to visit on numerous occasions, including our mother's 80th birthday with Oona, and finally my last visit to see you in 2019. Special moments from an abundance of special times together. I saw a quote today from a young man who passed away suddenly, he had written "We all die. The goal isn't to live forever, the goal is to create something that will"
