Francis (Heno) MAGEE

Always looked forward to meeting up with Heno on his regular saunters on Capel Street. The last time we met I told him that the historian Fergus Whelan discovered that Oliver Bond's middle name was Oliver. Heno told me to keep that a secret as someone might torch the flats. A pioneer in the art of social realism for Irish stage and screen. Sadly missed.

Heno dropped into my shop on Capel St. briefly every day for the past twenty years or so and he always brightened up my day. He was a man of gentle demeanor, and was also a man of wit and strength. Sleep well my friend till we meet again.

Thanks for the inspiration.

worked with Henno in the Dublin Meat Packers at grand canal st.it was around the time he wrote Hatchet,a lovely man and so interesting.....never wothout a book under his arm......a sad loss

To the family and friends and Heno wider community I am so sorry for your loss.

I am here in Toronto in body but my heart is with you on Francis Street .
I will miss him so.
