I was so sorry to hear this sad news on Fr McNamaras passing.
He made time for me, a stranger to him many years ago when I felt worried and anxious. He listened and he gave very sincere advice. I listened and I was always thankful for his time, his blessings of prayer and the kindness he showed - eventhough we did not meet again I did not forget.
Condolences to all his family.
RIP Fr McNamara and may you enjoy heavenly peace.

— Helen & Ciaran, Cahir, Kenmare
Gerard and I offer our sincere condolences to the parishioners of Glenflesk and Moyvane (where Fr Kevin was PP for six years). I, along with my sisters Marie, Rose, Helen, brothers Joseph and Tadhg were his first cousins and grew up with him. We simply called him Kevin. We all have wonderful memories of him, especially as a young lad in Cooraclare and when he started out as a priest in all the different parishes he worked in, both Ireland and England. He loved every parish he worked in and gave 100% to every parish. His parishioners were his family. But to us his cousins, he was just one of us and we will forever miss him and wish ‘ if only we had one more day’. Rest in peace Kevin, with your beloved Mam, Dad and baby brother Peter.

— Joe and Sheila Langan and family, Tarbert
Sincere sympathies to All of Fr Kevin’s Family and close friends, of whom there are many. Since hearing of his passing last week, we have been numbed by the loss he is, not only to our family and Parish but to the greater Diocese of Kerry where he had incredible value to add. He was just simply exceptional in his vocation as a Priest, his ability to plan for the future but also his ability to manage ‘the here and now’ in how he reacted to covid over the past 2 years and what what he put in place to help and support his community and Parish was just above and beyond, but Was Fr Kevin to the core. Rest Easy Fr Kevin, you have done more than your share here on Earth, Thank you for Everything you have done. Enjoy All the Rewards of your Heavenly home.
— Carmel & Edward OConnor & Family, Moyvane
