John disappeared on the 25th of May 1978. His body was located on 29th June 1999 at Colgagh, Iniskeen, Co. Monaghan along with Brian McKinney’s body.

John, by his family…

"John was very tall with long black hair. He was very tall for his age. He was almost 19 years old when he disappeared. He was a friendly boy and always tried to help the elderly neighbours who lived beside us. He would help them carry their shopping to the house. He was very outgoing, funny and very talkative".

"John took great pride in his appearance especially his long hair. His hair was his pride and joy!"

"He loved sports but was an armchair fan, rather than actively playing any sports. He was just like any other 18 year old, living life to the full and enjoying himself".

"His friends and his family miss him very much. I know his friends would have viewed him differently than me. I only had seen him as my brother, although when I talk to some of his friends we have a laugh about what he used to get up to".
