So sorry to hear of Josie’s passing A dear friend and a man who enjoyed life to the full.🙏 Our sincere sympathy to his beloved wife Mary, his children and his brothers at this sad time. Joey has left so many lovely memories which will sustain his family forever. My lasting memory is one of good news when Joey and his friend Michael Martin RIP had being given good news of their illness and came to Drumshanbo to thank the Poor Clare nuns for their prayers. We met later in the Lough Allen Hotel and when the session was over they drove me home for safety reasons !! May you both meet in heaven and no doubt it will be some reunion!! REST IN PEACE JOEY🙏
