Dearest John
Thank you for being so kind and loving to Noah and I..You’ll be in our hearts and memories-until we meet again.
You already know to tell Lee how much I love and miss her everyday.
You both are now reunited together dancing,singing and shining two lights as one
So blessed to have known you both
Hearts are broken with your loss but your love lives on and I know your name will never be forgotten..
I pray for you and Lee that your daughters find peace and connection again ( lord knows how Anne has tried)as I know you’ve always wanted,family, love, forgiveness and to be at peace with each other as you told me..
Rip John Sinclair you’re one in a million
Love Natalie and Noah ❤️
There once was a John, called Jack ..
for 5 1/2 years, he lived in the back ..
of Kerry and Paul’s country shack .
John, as our father, I you’re first born daughter ..
a mixture of Gemini, the air, and your water ..
you tried to radiate peace, in our family, as you oughtta ..
John, you were, in my book, the very best dad ..
a true champion of all the dads, I have had ..
and more so, now, in just light, you are clad ..
you said, you were the only one ..
I said, I’ve had many under the sun ..
in a parallel reality, I have been your son ..
we’ve known each other, in lives of yore ..
we met again, to raise the score ..
to clear karma of what we’ve done, before ..
you wondered why, you were here, so long ..
I said, cos your heart, hasn’t yet, heard, your love song ..
to not love yourself, is intrinsically wrong ..
you said, “I can’t love myself, for all the things, I have done”..
but Dad, all is forgiven, under the sun ..
we were born, to sing and dance and have fun ..
you asked, if you should die of a heart attack, or stroke ..
I said that’s a painful idea, what a silly bloke ..
we must be aware, in life, of what we evoke ..
recall your bestie’s wife, left with a smile, on her face ..
in the arms of her husband, in bed, at their place ..
it’s a choice, to leave our body, with grace ..
I told you that you were immortal, like me ..
when we die, we return, to the consciousness sea ..
and recall, we are all that is, was and will be ..
Friday morning, you woke me, at a quarter past seven ..
in the bucket, in the bathroom, there were two souls, in heaven ..
a gecko and a cockroach, left me, their frequency, to leaven ..
as without ‘by your leave’, you slipped out of your form ..
you figured out that this, is the enlightened norm ..
t’was a powerful release and brought with it, a storm ..
you knew it was time and from your body, you fled ..
leaving it, peacefully resting, there, on the bed ..
immediately, you appeared, before me, instead ..
youthful and handsome and dancing, with glee ..
on the divan, in my bedroom, right in front of me ..
you didn’t look, a day, older than thirty three ..
through my tears, my smile spread, from ear, to ear ..
you said “I’m no longer 3-D, but still here” ..
you said “I am with you and your little sister, dear ..
I came, now, ‘cos you ‘see’ me and know, I’m alive ..
as Sinclairs, we are descendants of the Royal beehive ..
I’ll watch over you, both, to ensure that you thrive” ..
you said “I wish for your sister, to drop into her heart ..
and recall, she’s a creator of cosmic, life art ..
in her joy that as one, we can never be apart”..
Once again, I must thank you, my darling old man ..
for loving unconditionally, Sandy, Kerry and Ann ..
I’m glad, now, after all, you ‘get’ the cosmic plan ..
to raise humanity, up into the light ..
to a frequency, beyond pain, fear and plight ..
each soul, choosing, to shine, fair and bright ..
to meet once again, we’ll be given a chance ..
sooner than later, at the cosmic party, we’lll dance ..
and many, will change partners, in love and romance ..
as your sign Cancer, is ruled by the moon ..
beneath it’s full radiance, we will meet, there, soon ..
and as one, cosmic voice, as we dance we will croon ..
Dad, you live, deep inside, my heart’s sacred space ..
in that ever, so tiny, spiritual place ..
where, we now, together radiate, only grace ..
Vale Dear John Sinclair
Remarkable man who lit up the room and a wonderful Dad to Lee’s first born Sandy, he held close to his heart as if she was his own.
That is just one of John’s major accomplishments – absolute unconditional love to both Lee and Sandy from the very beginning.
Not many men provide such selfless love and support – smart, caring, funny/grumpy, bossy and hilarious all in one which is the classic ‘John Sinclair’.
A dad to 3 daughters and almost made 100.
That is gold, that is amazing, that is YOU .
Kerry, Ann & family – my deepest condolences at this time. John will be forever my epitome of a gentleman always with a twinkle in his eye. It was a privilege to work with John & Ron in Alice in the ‘80’s. A relationship that soon blossomed into a lasting friendship. Super special that he travelled up to us circa 2008/9 & then to meet he & Dolla for lunch in 2015. May he rest in peace & your hearts be full of memories & love as ours are. Libby Prell & Tony Smith
Libby thank you for your kind words.
Kind Regards,
Kerry
