Sincere sympathy to all the Mulvihill family both in Ireland and Chicago.
I have fond memories of Denny, playing cards at Nolan's before he left for Chicago, gathering at the New Road Cross on sunny Sunday afternoons with a gang of young people. We were all young and enjoyed each others company, cars were few but we thought life was wonderful.
Denny, you are gone to a better place. Keep building those castles in the sky. God Bless.
