Father Eustace was a constant presence in the chapel in Raheny at the end of a day's adoration in coming to close the tabernacle, done in a very reverential, respectful and faithful manner. Attentive, wise and gentle as a confessor. May you rest in peace and find your eternal reward.

I am so so saddened to hear of the passing of Brother Eustace. I had the privilege of meeting him many times through confession & also did a 6 week retreat in Raheny in 2011 with some of his wonderful friends who have passed before him, Sr. Eilish & Noreen Kelly. I will always be grateful for that time it was such a powerful healing for me as I was going through a difficult time all the way until the end of my pregnancy & also my marriage. Prayers helped everything. I am honored to have met a true living Saint ! I will always pray to him. My condolences to his family friends & capuchin friars, Rest In Peace.
