John JosephHARDINGPassed away peacefully on 22nd April, aged 81 years. Beloved husband of Rayleen, dearly loved dad of Lee and Simon. Much loved grandy of Rebecca, Eilish, Philip, Kasey & Ryan, father-in-law to Hannah, brother-in-law to Peggy and uncle to Mary and Michelle. Funeral Service to be held at St Joseph & St Francis Xavier Church, Richmond, on Wednesday 4th May at 12:30pm. Friends please meet at the church. All are warmly invited to join the family at the Arden Arms, Atley Hill, for refreshments following the service. Family flowers only please. Donations, if desired, would be gratefully received for St Teresa's Hospice, Darlington. In tribute to Jonjoe, please wear bright colours. We little knew that day, God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death, we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone. For part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us beautiful memories, your love is still our guide, and although we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
