John William Nixon, aged 74, passed away on 2nd December 2025. A dear son, brother and much-loved father to Joanne and Jonathan, John lived life hard, fast, and on his own terms - just like the Wild West he so loved.
An extreme character in every sense, John never did anything quietly. He drank a pint or two, told a story that grew taller with every retelling, and lived with a flair that could never be tamed. Extreme? Absolutely. Memorable? Without question. John left a mark on everyone who knew him.
A celebration of John’s life will take place on Thursday, 18th December at 2:15 pm at Shay Grange Crematorium, Long Lane, BD9 6ST. In lieu of flowers, donations in John’s memory may be made to Soldiers Off the Street, a box will be available as you leave the chapel.
He will be deeply missed, but his spirit and stories will live on in all who were lucky enough to know him.
