Dr. Alan BYRNE

Linda Alex Nicholas and I are unable to believe the void Alan’s passing has created.
He was a wonderful husband,father,brother,uncle and friend to so many! Alan was an inspiration in our lives, a role model,”the complete man”. He medical vocation helped and healed many and his compassion and good humour was seen by so many patients colleagues and friends.Alan embodied the meaning of Christianity, lived each day to the full and left all who knew him with knowledge they had met someone very special!
We know he is in a better place and may he continue to inspire us by his legacy.
Our deepest condolences and sympathy to Mary,Julie,Stephen and Ellen. May you be comforted by the tremendous admiration and affection in which Alan is held by so many. May he Rest in Peace.
Mark,Linda,Alex and Nicholas.

My heartfelt sympathy to Alan’s wife and children . I met him at one of the lowest times in my life and he promised me he would ‘ get my eyes smiling again’. He did !! He made me laugh many times with stories of his children and spoke with such love about his family. He was a true gentleman and a fantastic doctor. May his kind soul rest in peace.
