Our Da, was a man who could win the hearts of many through his smile, his laughter and his song. His life was rich with many things while his love for his family and “his Ireland” were second to none. Leaving behind all that he knew in 1966 to bravely put forth into motion a new life for he, the love of his life and his young family, Ireland never left his heart and soul. He was all that he needed to be to everyone that loved him – he asked for very little and gave as much as he could to us all. His smile could warm the coldest of hearts, his voice in song drew tears, while his stories were always comprised of fond memories of a life well lived and loved. Our loss is indeed Heaven’s gain. Our superhero has retired his cape – and well deserved it is – yet we know the love that existed here between us will grow forevermore. Love you, Da – Goodnight and God Bless xo.
