To Auntie Brede, Claire and Joan and to Joanne, Ian, Rory and Sally, sincere condolences on the death of cousin David. Great memories of Davy, from the early 80’s bumping into himself and Ronan in their usual drinking haunts around town, to a more recent walk with him through Trinity College as he regaled me with the tales of his adventurous trip through New Zealand. Davy certainly fought the fight. May his soul now rest in peace.
