We were together in St Charles Lwanga Sec. Sch, Kitui, Kenya, with Tony Woods as our Principal. Tony has since died, having been knigtened for his services to Education in Kenya.
I was honoured to be at your wedding and my many visits to your home in Ballyroe when I was visiting home in Tralee.. There was always a great welcome and much to chat about. I remember one of your girls making herself known to me in Hudson Bay Hotel. I enjoyed that meeting.
Unfortunately my time with Barney was cut short. May he rest in peace. His absence will cause deep grief and I know that you will be blessed with very happy memories.
Much love,
Aidan O'Keeffe
