Deepest sympathy to Sally, Maeve, Clodagh and Aoife .Finian was a thorough gentleman. May Finian's Gentle Soul Rest in Peace.
Very sad at the loss of Finian, a hill-walking companion since 2000 in the CHA walking Club. On overseas treks in Scotland and Wales we were regular roommates. His regular high spirits were infectious. His obvious love for and deep pride in Sal, his daughters and grandchildren was obvious. My deepest sympathy to all the family.

I wish to send my sincere sympathy to Finian's family on their great loss. Finian was a great member of the walking club CHA and every one of us enjoyed his company very much.

To all the Canavan family, so sorry to learn the news of Fin’s passing. Along with everything else, he was a wonderful uncle, I have many very fond memories of Fin’s warmth and humour at family gatherings over the years. I remember one occasion particularly at Offaly Road in 1980 when he presented me with a football hand-signed by my childhood hero, Frank Stapelton – Fin had some connection with his father in Dublin. For a soccer-mad young child, prone to hero worship, this was epic. I can still vividly picture the smile on Fin’s face when he presented the gift to me. That football remained my holy grail/great treasure for quite some time. Fin was a wonderfully kind and compassionate person. He will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace.
We send our condolences to the Canavan family. May the Lord give you strength at this time. Rest in peace Fin!!

Very sad news about Finian. I became friends of him as a members of HF Walking Club. His wit, good humour and wisdom made him a much loved member of the club. You could not wish for better company on a day's walk. We did several long distance walks in the UK and his high spirits jollied us along. Deepest sympathy to Sally, the girls and the rest of the family. His passing leaves a huge gap in our lives.
So sorry to hear of Finian's death. Such a lovely man. Always great fun to chat with when hiking. He will be deeply missed. Deepest sympathy to Sal and all the family. So sorry for your loss.
