"Hi David, Thank you for the Birthday greeting. I had a lovely day with two of my daughters Jessica and Marjory and the other one could not be here as she is in the West of Ireland at College in Galway doing her final exams. I am not sure if I…"
"Hi again David. Yes we see Paddy. He lives only a couple of miles away from us with his wife Caterine and also three daughters. He travels to the USA quite often promoting his books and if you look on my site you will see him and perhaps make…"
"Dear David
Thanks for your comments about Michael. We miss him a lot. I dont think we met but I do remember hearing you name mentioned many times. Where are you living now. Best wishes. Margaret."
"Hi Stanley.
Met you pre Corps Week Aug 1982. In fact Bo married Michael and I in your house at HQ in the woods. I remember your kindness to both Michael and I and we even shared the same bathroom while I had my hair done for the wedding. I dont know…"
"Hi Paddy
Thanks for your message. Yes the time is flying but the pain is still great. I don't know if you ever get over the loneliness he was just a great character.
Love you album and the family look great.
God bless
Love
Maggie."
"Hi there. Thank you for your kind remarks. As it happens I am heading off to Tenerife, Canary Islands with Adrienne tomorrow for a week. I will pass your email address on to her but Adi not very IT minded. Her address is No.1 Lakeside Cottages,…"
"Dear Ed. Did you know my two brothers. I think they were in 11th or 12th. They are Gerry Byrne and Ronnie Byrne. Gerry lives here in Galway and is married to Bernie Howett I think from 11th Corps also. Regards Margaret Heron."
"Dear Ed. My message doesnt seem to go thru. This is my 3rd attempt. Here goes. Brendy lives in Bristol in UK close to some friends Laurence and Kim Tor. Email powerfilled2@yahoo.co.uk."
"Dear Eileen
Thank you for your kind comments. They are much appreciated and I am glad you were blessed by Michael. I think he blessed many in his life time and did not seem to realise it. We miss him a lot. God bless and thank you."
"Hello C.H. Thank you for friend request. I remember you visited Ireland a couple of years ago and Michael and I were in Killaloe with John and Ellen at the time so we missed each. Sorry about that I hear Paddy and Catherine had fun with you all.…"
"Thanks for your message Patricia. Great to hear Chrissie heading your way. Isnt she great. God bless her energy. I will be in Lanzarote 22 - 29th Dec but will see you after. Love Maggie"
Dear Margaret--Thanks so much for writing. Of course I remember that wild Irish wedding! I am devastated to learn you lost Michael--there's just no way I can begin to understand the depth of such a loss. Please know that I send my love and prayers for you at this time. I'm just sorry we lost touch with so many wonderful Irish believers over the past years. I loved seeing all the photos of your family in happier times--thanks so much for posting them for us.
Bo and I are traveling at the moment in our big bus and are visiting our daughter, Susan, in Montana. It's been a lovely visit. Tomorrow we head north into Canada and then back down the west coast. It's always an adventure.
Lots of love to you. I agree with Paddy's note farther down the page that we may be nearer to the end than any of us know when we'll be reunited. But, for now, the pain remains.
I am trying to locate Gerry Byrne. We were friends in the Corps. (He was not an old flame btw) He was one of the funniest guys in the Corps. So, if you see him, please tell him I said hello.
There's a girl called Susan Joyce looking for Gerry's emaill or contact details. She must be an old flame?
Hope you are well and enjoying the great weather. Hard to believe it's almost a year since Michael passed on. The way things are going, it won't be long 'till we see him again.
Dear Margaret. Yes I knew your brothers well. You have to tell them I said hi. I'm commin' over there next year. Would love to see them.
I've emailed the address you gave for Brendy but got no response. Perhaps I got the wrong address or it didn't get through to him. Please tell Brendy I've would love to hear from him.
Thank you, Margaret.
Ohhh, Tenerife sounds lovely - you girls have fun in the sun. Tell Adrienn I still keep in touch with Kirsten and Berit.
Thank you for her address, I will send her a few lines. I love her big hair =)
Dear Margaret,
You may not remember me at all, I met all you wonderful Irish people in Gartmore in 1987 or 88. We ( the norwegians) visited in Ireland during Advance class 83?. Can't remember the name of the place , but it was a beautiful hotell up on the westcoast - north of Galway. There was a Irish gang present during a Irish wedding connected to the Reahard residens at HQ?
Michael was such a warm and kind person - looking at pictures of him makes me smile. He was so funny.
I am so sorry for your loss.
I wonder if you can help me locate Adrienne - there is a great picture of Michael and her together - you must have seen her in the resent years. We were together in Emporia and Amsterdam, but after that I lost track of her. It would be so good to hear from her. If you can ask her if she wants to be in touch.
Take care and god bless,
Gro
