To the Davenport Family,

Please except my sincere condolences in the death of Tom, I am so sad to just find out. I am a former waitress of Canty's along with my late Mother Florence. I have the fondest of memories of Tom and of Canty's. My husband and inlaws were the band there for many years.I would always ask Maureen about him when I ran into her. I am sorry for your loss, may he rest in peace.

Sincerely,

I have wonderful memories of your visits to Ireland. Bringing those vinyl singles from the Jukebox at Canty's of the latest hits...I was the bees knees in Lisdoonvarna! I'm sure you're already telling stories with Gus and your Mom and Dad. Rest in peace.
