Thoughts
We have such fond memories of John, the nights out in Nottingham, always planning the best route back to the bus so that he could squeeze in one more pint, the city breaks and the BBQ’s
I will always remember how you struggled to smoke a cigar on your stag weekend and whenever I see a brussel sprout or a pint of Stella in a straight glass I will think of him
You laughed at all my old jokes especially the ones about getting married that I told you the night before you married Paula
Anne really appreciated how friendly you were the first time she met you and Paula and fondly recalls your saying “SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN STAN”
You will be so sadly missed John
Rest in Peace Mr Lay
From your friends
Anne and Tony

My family are deeply saddened to hear of your passing.
I remember you holding Luke as a newborn baby 22 years ago, and admitting he was the first baby he had held and looked so awkward!
Even though we hadn't seen you for over a year. You were very much in our thoughts,
RIP
Love Tracy, John, Luke, Ben and Emily x
A lovely man and you will be missed.

Well, Lay the senior
I was born blessed with the gift off you.
We have a bond that distance and time can not brake. I have you to thank for the freedom to be reckless and live life as an adventure. You was the only safety net I ever needed, always there should things go wrong. A brother who would take care of me, pick me up, dust me off and get me back on my feet. You did more for me than you ever knew.
I’ll be talking to you over a beer, watching rugby or in bed at night like we use to all those years ago. I’ll hear your voice,I’ve got you forever.
Much love for you Lay the senior.
Lay the junior l
