So sorry to hear of Uncle John’s passing. He always had a smile, a joke to tell, and was such a wonderful friend to my Mum and Dad. I’ll always remember him fondly. Thinking of Aunty Shiela and the whole family. Rest peacefully, Uncle John. May God hold you in His loving arms, and may you rest in His eternal peace. ❤️

Condolences to the entire Mullen family on the passing of a deeply loved and wonderful patriarch. A true gentleman who will be missed so much by so many. We will fondly remember the times we spent with John, great conversations with plenty of humour. He was so proud of all his family and their achievements, and we had many good times to reflect on. Sending all our love to all. Glen and Denise Taylor

To the Mullen family, we were deeply saddened to hear of the passing of the heart of your family. He was a wonderful man whose love for his family knew no bounds, and that love touched everyone fortunate enough to know him. We were all better for having known him. His warmth, his strength, and the example he set will stay with us always. He will be sadly missed but never forgotten. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

One of the warmest people I’ve met in my life, a bundle of energy and positivity. It’s impossible not to smile when I think of my self proclaimed “Favourite Uncle John”. My deepest sympathies to Sheila and our Adelaide cousins and their families. We know how sorely he will be missed. Love from, Liam, Justine, Declan and Imogen
