It is with great sadness and the heaviest of hearts that we confirm the death of our dear Dad, John Docherty on 20th January 2025 in Marie Curie Hospice following a short period of ill health borne with great courage & dignity.
His death will create a huge void in the lives of Stephen, Andrew, Marie, their grandchildren, great grandchildren, his brothers, extended family, and his many friends.
John’s death was proceeded by that of his darling daughter Anna (1985) whom he sorely missed.
He was loved dearly and respected by all who knew him.
The funeral mass will be live streamed for those unable to attend via https://www.churchservices.tv/maryhill
One of Johns final wishes was that, where possible, those attending avoid wearing black and celebrate his life in colour. Lastly, he requested that instead of flowers, his preference would be that a small donation is made towards the wonderful work, care & compassion shown by all at Marie Curie, Springburn. A donation box will be provided in the church or you can donate directly via https://www.mariecurie.org.uk/donate-now
