    Story

    Tragically on Wednesday 24th January, John who was homeless, was found slumped on a street in Dundee.

    An off duty nurse who was passing by gave John first aid, the paramedics arrived but unfortunately despite the great efforts, John aged 33, sadly passed away at Ninewells Hospital.

    John has not always been homeless, he lived and worked in Edinburgh for some years before moving to Dundee to look for work.

    Locals within the community have commented on what a nice man he was. A local lady has come forward and said that when she offered John some money and food, he told her to keep it for her own babies.

    John leaves behind a 13 year old son, whom he loved very much. Johns favourite subject was his son, and would tell all who would listen about him.

    Whilst John did not have an easy life, we as friends, who wish we had known about Johns recent circumstances are trying to raise as much as we can to give him a funeral that he deserves. This is something that can also offer comfort to a 13 year old boy who has lost his Dad.

    Whilst John was a very proud man, and would no doubt dislike this request, we wish to give him the send off he deserves.

    Any donations are greatly received.
