Sincere condolences to Mary and family on the passing of Bernie Joe. May he rest in peace. On his trips to Ireland he often visited along with his sisters to my family home in Knockroe and reminisced with my father Paddy Joe on bygone days. Our thoughts and prayers are with all at this sad time. Mary & Gay Sheeran Ballyfarnon Co Roscommon

So sad that ye have lost Brian. Always and ever grateful for the kindness he and Mary always showed me. I was welcomed into their home and treated, fed, loved, driven and occasionally yelled at like one of their own. And I know there were many more 'extras' like me over the years. Bed of Heaven to him.
