It is with sadness in our hearts that we announce the passing of John Brooks ADCRG. A message from his family:

In the early hours of Sunday 27th October 2019, our beloved husband and father, John Brooks passed away peacefully at home.

We would like to express our gratitude to our Irish Dancing family for your support over the past few days. It has bought us comfort hearing how Dad touched the lives of so many people.

Our hearts are broken but we remain strong as a family as that is what Dad would have wanted.

We are are in the process of confirming his funeral arrangements and will share these as soon as possible.
