Our sincere condolences to his family and friends ,especially Pat and Mary.
May he rest in peace and perpetual light shine upon him and the angels welcome him into paradise.
May the road rise up to meet him, the wind be always at his back and rain fall soft upon his turf. Sun shine warm upon his countenance.
Till we meet again may God hold him in the hollow of his hand.
