Dear Irene and family, I was so sorry to hear of Jack's death. Fr Paddy told us when he came back from USA that Jack wasn't well. I remember so well your trip to Clonmel in 1990 and am so very glad that we got to meet Jack. I send you our very sincere sympathy. My mum is Berna Cassidy and my maiden name is Mary Farrell.

Thinking of you all at this time. May Jack rest in peace.

We were deeply saddened to hear of the loss of Jack. Ed had always spoken highly of him. We are thinking of both of you - knowing that he was such a special person and how much he’ll be missed.



Meanwhile we hope that the sad memories fade soon, leaving only the happy ones that, you both must have of your lives together. You are both in our thoughts and prayers.
