Galway and the U.K.
It is with deep sadness that we announce the death of John Roche, who passed away in Sobell House Hospice on Monday, 20, May 2024 aged 86. Dearly beloved brother of Jim, Aidan, Paul and Margaret. He will be greatly missed by all his family and by all those who knew and loved him. John was a much-respected tutor on the history of science.

My soul to soar forever more, above you Galway Bay
Rest In Peace John
