We met Paudie last August in Boston. even though he was not feeling great he insisted in entertaining us on ,not one but three nights. He was so thoughtful. He always thought of everybody else.
He was one of a kind and he made me proud to be from Cork the real Capitol of Ireland

He and Fergus literally picked me up off a Boston sidewalk and gave me the run of the kitchen at the Scholar which in turn gave me every opportunity I have had since. I met so many people through him. Thanks Pat. Condolences to Karen and the rest of the family, he will be missed.

Words cannot express the loss we all feel. Pat and I came to the US as immigrants just like Paudi in the 80's. We struggled and supported eachother our first years here and then shared our lives as we all moved through the different phases of life
Paudi was blessed with a wonderful caring wife and three beautiful children. Through hard work he was able to become successful in his work and private life. Just as he was starting to enjoy the fruits of his labor God decided to change the course. Paudi may not be with us in body anymore but his spirit will always be with us
Whenever we hear the song "when I am 64" we will always think of Paudi. It was his party piece and it's sad that the words of the song were not able to apply to his own life
Rest in peace Paudi, we love you
Patrick and Pia McCarthy
