Condolences

Pat O’Connell

Deepest condolences to Mary and family on Paddy’s passing. I clearly remember when he came to No. 4. He called myself and Marty as we were running by, introduced himself and more importantly gave us money. He was a good neighbour and very kind to my mother Katie when she was living alone in the Autumn of her life. May his soul rest in peace.

I have very fond memories of Paddy. I practically grew up with Margaret and was in their house daily and I loved the friendly happy atmosphere of the family. Paddy was always good for a laugh and I loved how he and his wife Mary would ride their bikes every Sunday to visit granny. So sorry to Margaret and all the family. Love and Blessings to you all!
