I went away and I still go away; she's always been the rock."While Jack has followed him into the music world, Adam and Fionn work in IT and Johnny is very proud of all three of his boys.
"It’s with a broken heart that I have to announce the passing of my brother Micheal Sherrard. He passed away in the company of his 3 beautiful children. I was with him the day before. He is survived by his children Chloe, Ellie and Nathaniel, his grandson Henry, our sister Fiona, our cousin Miggie, myself and our extended family."There’s a hole in our hearts now that will never heal. I wish I could say more but right now words fail me.
"We put some of his ashes in the sea off Ireland's Eye and I hope to put some of mine in there with him so he's not alone."
