Ar dheis Dė go raibh sè

On Friday 17th July, Siobhra and I made a dash home to be with my Dad before he passed away. True to form, he held on until we arrived. He slipped away peacefully in the early morning of Sunday 19th with all his family around him. 

He was a great Dad, husband and Grandad, we couldn't have asked for better. His beginnings were poor and he and my mother worked very hard all their lives giving my siblings and I a great start. He also served his community and his country.  We will all miss him terribly. 

Ar dheis Dė go raibh sė.

(We came back to Nairobi on 31st July and are continuing the journey on the Kenyan Coast....more to follow)
