The late John (Jack) Egan
The staff at Hollymount Nursing Home expressed their sincere sympathy to John's sister Mary and all family members. "We will miss John," they said and his interest in horses. "He was a great man to let us know what weather to expect and as for lotto numbers! A really lovely gentleman - may John rest in peace".
"A perfect picture to remember Uncle Jack by. I will always remember his chuckle laugh. Rest in peace," wrote Pat Egan.
Expressing sympathy to Jack's family, Pat and Bridie Connaughton wrote: "One of the old stock of our parish a kind and gentleman. May Jack now Rest in Peace".

He was predeceased by his parents Eugene and Norah, brothers Pat, Tommy, Eugene and Michael.
Jack will be sadly missed by his sister Mary (Knock), cousin Seamus (Hollymount), nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.
