The following messages of condolence and symbols
have been added in memory of Jonathan.

I had the pleasure of meeting Jonny in 2010 in Liverpool. I thought he was gorgeous & he was both inside and out. We lost touch over the years but I always thought of him especially when I heard a Dublin accent. He was someone you don’t forget. Witty, charismatic, funny and adorable. I was watching a documentary about Dublin tonight, thought of Jonny instantly and then found out this tragic news. I’ve cried all night long. You’ll be so missed by all who had the opportunity to know you. God bless you JM, you’ll have heaven in stitches of laughter I bet. My thoughts are with Jonny’s family & friends at this incredibly difficult time x

Jonny, we sadly never met but I knew Kelly had met someone special when I hadn't heard from her for a few weeks back at the end of last year!
From speaking to her, I could tell you made her so happy and you loved her in the kindest and most gentle way. A kind of love she is so deserving of. It sounded like you experienced so much joy among such an intense period of uncertainty and unknowns. I was so heartened to hear that Kelly's Dad, Jim described you as having similar traits to Kelly. You were clearly a beautiful man and this is a colossal loss for your loved ones and the world. Sending your friends, family and Kelly so much love. I hope you're finally out of pain and discomfort. You live on in the lives and hearts of everyone you so clearly touched. Rest in Peace, Jonny xx

Dear Lynne and family,

Sending my love and condolences to Jonny’s family, girlfriend and all who were lucky enough to call him a friend, I’m so sorry. Jonny ‘Drama’ was 1 in a million and so loved. He’s left behind such a legacy, and his legendary stories will live on! He was such a genuine, thoughtful person who showed a sincere interest and always made such an effort. He has impacted so many. RIP Jonny, you’ll be so missed ♥

Finding it very hard to wrap my head around the tragic loss of Jonny. A gem of a guy, mad as a box of frogs and always had a story to tell. Sending all of my love to his friends & family.

You're painfully missed pal x

Dear Lynne and family,

So sorry to hear about Johnny passing away. My heart goes out to all his family and extended family in Australia. I had the pleasure of being in he company of Johnny on many occasions in Liverpool. Like myself Johnny new how to have a good time. He was one of the funniest lads I have met and i would like to think of him as a good freind.

You'll Never Walk Alone my friend RIP x

Such a pleasure to have been a part of your life.
I will always remember our time living together in St Kilda. Such legendary times. Best roommate ever.
All the best mate,
Chris

Whilst it was a long time since Jonny and I saw eachother after Uni, I'm devastated to hear of his passing. Some people leave you with such fond memories and Jonny was one of those people. He was funny (loved to take the micky), kind, caring and lived life to the fullest. Life is cruel but you made such an impact during your time here on everyone that you met. Rest in peace up there my friend, Jonny 'pint of carling' Martin. Sending heartfelt condolences to Jonny's family and friends xxx

To Lynne & Family, we are so terribly sad for your loss and of course how sorry we are for Jonny. The loss of a sibling so young is a tragedy. As a family you will of course support each other and be strong for one another and all your friends and loved ones will always be there to support you any way they can. We wish you all our love and support. Jonny in the brief moments I met him was so charismatic. There will be so many stories to share with each other for years to come so his memory will always live on. Even in the brief moments I met him I have such long lasting memories that bring a smile, he will do that for you all for the rest of your lives as a family.

Such a privilege to have met you and got to spend time with you in Melbourne. A complete gent and an even bigger legend <3

So sorry to hear of Jonnys untimely passing. I met Jonny travelling in Thailand 18 years ago. We lost touch after a few years but I could see how happy he was living in Australia throughout the years. I will remember the laughs and great times we had on the koh San Road and the islands forever. I can see by reading all these messages that Jonny is a part of so many peoples stories and journeys, and he will be remembered for ever. Sending love & light to Jonnys family and loved ones. Rest easy Jonny xxxx

I will be forever grateful for the time I spent in your company. Football and nights out were always better craic with you around. Telling the priest at our wedding that you could pull the table cloth off the dinner table without moving a cup , only to upend the whole table as he watched on in horror always gets a laugh!! You were brilliant company and a great mate to have. Will always regret not seeing more of you over the last few years as everyone moved in different directions. Sleep well my friend. You'll light it up up there x

We are so sad to hear of Jonny's death - so young so wrong. He is very much in our thoughts and we send all our love to Terry, Brian, Gary, Lynne and his partner Kelly. XX

Dear Jonny, I haven't had the words and am struggling now. I've known you since you were 13, longer than I haven't. You have always been there , a constant member of the family. I've probably driven you mad at times but you are like my little brother and my heart is completely broken. Life will never be the same and I don't know how we'll get by. The kids, Erin and Finn adored you, their cool Uncle Jonny, international man of mystery. Liverpool will always have a place for you as we always did. We will carry you with us but with broken hearts forever and loving you always, I can't believe you are gone.
Missing you always and beyond words, your
Liverpool family; sister in law, Ellen, loving niece and nephew, Erin & Finn xxx

To Johnny's family, so sorry to hear the news about Johnny, he worked with us for the best part of three years and was part of the soccer team and even won player of the match on one of the tournaments held, he was a very kind respectful guy and was lovely to work with, our sympathy to his family and friends on your loss

So so sorry Lynne to hear about your brother. I cant fathom the loss you and your family must be feeling at this very sad time.

Ian

Dear Lynne, I was very saddened to hear the news about your lovely brother. Its very hard to put it in to words but i'll be thinking of you and your family during this time and you are in my prayers, mind yourself and hopefully see you soon xx

Deepest condolences to the Martin family on the loss of Johnny. I had the pleasure of spending many nights in his company. He will be sorely missed.

Such a fun day. 5pm singing to an empty bar . Great memories, we miss you mate.

Staff party at the races. After a full day of drinks we decided to go to a karaoke bar. Jonny took over the stage and belted out a few tunes ❤️

To my lovely friend Jonny,

Thank you for all the fun times, tours of Dublin and for being such a great friend. I can see that you've spread your cheekiness and fun everywhere you've gone since our uni days! I wish we had stayed in touch more over the last few years, but I feel so lucky to have met you and spent the time with you that I did. Sending lots of love to Jonny's family,

Roxer xxxx

I have been so lucky to have known Uncle Jonny for the last 16 years and have built so many fond memories with him. He was so inspirational for taking life and making it yours and doing what you wished. I will miss you dearly Jonny and my thoughts and prayers go out to Grandad, Dad, Gary and Lynne in this hard time. Rest in Peace Jonathan.

I cannot believe I am writing this here, I knew how much you were loved by everyone but reading all the messages on this platform, Facebook and Instagram its evident you were lived and respected so much more. You touched so many lives with your fun living happy outlook on life. Your mum and dad were so proud of you and all you achieved. Aunty Chrissy would have adored kelly as I know Terry Lynne and the boys did. I'm just so sad and angry at the injustice of it all, you lived your life as you wanted, fun packed and free. You will forever be in our hearts and we as a family will never get over this. Sleep well darling, until we meet again xxx

I only had the pleasure of knowing Jonny for less than a year, having met him on a trip to Queensland where our friendship groups formed a connection, but his loss is devastating. Jonny was fun, far more sensible than his mates (😂), considerate, a great conversationalist, funny, kind, everything you could ask for in a friend. I knew immediately why his mates treasured him so much. I’m grateful for the drinks we shared, my memory of the sunset the day we all partied on the boat, and to have had the chance in my lifetime to meet him. Cheers to you, Jonny!

My sincerest condolences to Jonnys family! Thinking of you all at this tragic time. Jonny was loved by SO many, all around the world. He had the most amazing energy and sense of humour. Always had myself and Stephen in stitches, yet happy to have the deep conversations and would do anything for a friend. Still can’t believe he’s gone! RIP Jonny ❤️

Words will never be enough to express how heartbroken we all are. Jonny was larger than life, when you were with him you never knew what antics he would get up to. Blackpool and the ice cream and fire extinguisher are just one of the funniest memories. I cannot believe you have left this world but I know you will be looking down on us all. Uncle Terry, Brian, Gary and Lynne know we are here for you and cannot wait to give you a huge hug when you come home. We will be with you online on Tuesday 💔💔

Lynne and family
I am so sorry for your loss. Its hard to find the words to help give comfort. He was taken all too soon and no doubt will leave a big void in your family and in your lives. We are all thinking and praying for you and here to support you in the coming weeks and months as we reminisce on the wonderful life he had. He is reunited now with his lovely mum Chrissie and no doubt they are smiling down on you and will give you the strength to get through what will be a very emotional time for you all. Only wish we were there to support you in person.
Sending all our love from Ireland and will be thinking and praying for you all over the coming days xxx

I can’t believe the sad news of Jonny’s passing. Many tears have been shed and memories shared over the years coming back over the weekend.. I can’t believe I will never see you at home again. To all of his family and friends I’m thinking of you through this painful time. Jonny you were taken away too soon and I will miss you. To say goodbye is painful. Until we meet again - watch over your loved ones X

I didn't sleep a wink after hearing the sad news yesterday.
My deepest condolences to the Martin family.
I was a friend of Jonnys in the Institute of Education class of 2002 and also a fellow Melbournian now.
He was very funny and had a heart of gold. I have a few hilarious memories I was reminising about last night.
I'm so so sorry Jonny. RIP x

Quite hard to believe what has happened to Johnny…all we can do is offer our prayers and support at this time…I met Johnny a few times professionally and out having a few pints…always a gentleman and made time to talk…he willed be missed by everyone…Michael and Gemma

Jonny Martin was a professional messer. He leaves behind a legacy of stories that we will tell forever. I love ya bud and I’ll miss you terribly. The world won’t be the same without you.

Jonny, from the moment we met we were bound to share some good “craic” together no matter what we were doing. I was so proud of you in the way you set out to achieve so much here in Australia and you receiving citizenship was the icing on the cake for me. You were our tall handsome funny friend and I will always appreciate you as the man and friend you were to all of us. Cheers to you Jonny and for blessing us with your presence, always in my heart.

Dear Uncle Terry, Brian, Garry and Lynne
My heart goes out to you all, you are in our thoughts at all times. We are sending love and strength to help you get through this. Jonny made us all laugh, always a twinkle in his eye, he was a gentleman too and lived his life too the full.
I will see you all at home and will be with you via the webcam .
Love always Tracy Phil Rachel and Hamish 💔💔💔

Our deepest sympathy to the family on the passing of Jonny. A truly beautiful friend to our daughters Joanne and Sinead. May he rest in peace. X

Not something I ever thought I’d be writing and I don’t even know where to start. Since the day we met 12+ years ago, you were my person. A friend, more than a friend and the best man I’ve ever met. Words fail me at the fact your gone but I will never ever forget you. So many funny memories of our random antics, I feel like I could write a book on them! You kept me going through some dark times (and multiple lockdowns!). Love you forever and you’ll always be in my heart. Be at peace with your mum now, All my love to Terry, Lynne, Gary and Brian as always, more so in this hard time xxx

Extremely sad to hear the news about Jonny. He was a close friend in school (Institute of Ed) and beyond and I have wonderful memories of Jonny. He alway pushed the boundaries for a laugh and you never knew what mischief he’d get up to which always kept things interesting. I went on one of our first lads trips to Prague and Amsterdam with him and many outings in our 20’s. The stories and memories of those trips I still tell today 20 years later and I will continue to tell. He was a genuinely nice bloke. He will be sadly missed and was taken way too young. His memories will live on forever and I wish his family and close friends my deepest condolences. RIP Jonny

RIP Jonny. You will be sadly missed. A great friend and work colleague. We had many the laugh together. Ar dheis De go raibh a anam

I will never get over losing you. You were my baby brother, best man and best friend. I'm so glad I was able to meet with you weeks before you passed and be there at the moment of your passing. I can't believe I'm never going to see you again.

So sad to hear the passing of Jonny. Worked with him in WATERMAN MOYLAN way to young to leave this journey. Lovely fella always made me laugh. Rip Jonny

To uncle jonny, we are sorry that we did not get to see you before you went to heaven. Give nanny a hug and kiss from us, bounce on those clouds and shine like the star you are. Watch over our mum, grandad and uncles and help them in the days ahead. You are the best uncle in the world jonny, so funny we will have great memories but we'll miss your treats. We will grow up and hopefully we make you proud as our mum was of you. Love always xxxx

RIP Jonny, you will be forever missed and loved by all your family and friends. You were a beautiful blue eyed bouncing baby who brought joy and mischief into all our lives and continued to be an amazing young man full of wit and kindness. You will be with your Mammy, Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles, you can bring laughter, and joy to their heavenly lives. Love very much Auntie Phil and all the Farrell's

I was terribly sorry to hear the news of Jonny's untimely passing. Jonny was a brilliant guy, a formidable athlete and wonderful footballer who will live on in his friends' memories. My sincere condolences to all of the Martin family at this difficult time.

So sorry to hear of Jonny's passing. Thoughts with the family.

Jonny will remain forever in our hearts and memories. He was so kind to an visiting cousin, always gave up his bed for me, and I would always leave my remaining punts or euros under his pillow. He made us all laugh from the day he was born from the infamous head butting of Nannie Curley to his Houdini antics escaping his cot in Pontins. Through to his amazing wit and humour when he grew to the wonderful young man he became. He was so loved and will always be loved by all that knew him. My love and heartfelt condolences go out to the Martins, we love you so very much. If there is anything that we can do please do not hesitate to ask, you will have the strength of the love you have for each other and the love of all your family, friends and all of Jonny's friends to help you at this time. I know life will never be quite the same but take comfort in the immense love we all feel for you, if you can. Utter devastated. RIP Jonny

It is so sad for this untimely passing of Jonathan. Jonathan lived life to the full,enjoyed life, you will be remembered on both sides of the world.It is almost two decades ago since I met Jonathan and he has a special place in my heart as Jonathan was so kind to Reiss when he was a young child. Reiss always said he was a fun uncle and that's all a mum can hope for. I know this is heart breaking for Jonathan's loving family and girlfriend.Thank you Jonathan and rest in peace, love from your sister-in-law Carmel
