Gerard (Gerry) Mulholland (Jarír Al-Majar)

My deepest sympathy to all the Mulholland family and extended family on Gerry's recent passing. He really was "one of a kind ", beloved of all who knew him. I have many great memories of him...from busking with him in Salthill when I was an absolute novice flute player, to having him at short notice travel down to Ballyvaughan to help out at a children's performance when we were stuck for a musician! Ever a generous spirit, and always providing the spark for ceol agus craic in any setting...ni bheidh a leitheid aris ann. May he ever sing and make music in his final resting place.

The ripples continue after the stone lands at the bottom of the water bed. You were, and continue to be, an inspiration. شكرًا لك, go raibh maith agat, merci, 谢谢, gratias tibi, thank you.

I'm happy he was my friend
I'm happy he's released from the pain of this world.

Deepest condolences to all his loved ones

Slán leat Gerry, File Bóthar na Trá

My condolences to Breda and all of the Mulhollands. I was shocked to read of Gerry’s passing - he was always part of the Galway streetscape. Two special memories - storm, mid January 1995, sheltering in Tigh Neachtain and mid-storm door from Cross Street bursts open, man in t-shirt takes over the piano and plays a Beatles medley for about a half hour for the ten or so lucky patrons and then suddenly disappears into the fearsome night! Who else? 24 years later, July 2019 a quiet Sunday night in Tigh Neachtain Gerry is playing old favourites such as Galway Bay, turns with that quick gesture “where ya from?” and on hearing launches into “Limerick you’re a lady”. A defining character of Galway and a man of many parts. May he rest in peace.

Sincere sympathy to Breda ,Eamonn, Marion and the extended Mulholland family on the sad passing of Gerry. He will be a great loss to his family, his wide circle of friends both at home and abroad and all who knew him.
Gerry may your gentle soul rest in eternal peace.

On behalf of the Brazil family, formerly of Ardnamara, longtime neighbours and friends of the Mulholland family, I would like to express our deepest sympathy to Breda, Eamon and Marion and the entire family on the death of Gerry. May his gentle soul rest in peace.

Rest in peace, kind and gentle soul.

Deepest sympathies to Marion and all the Mulholland family on the passing of Gerry. He was a lovely kind man.
May he rest in peace

Cherished memories of a 1960's boarding-school friendship with Gerry in Roscrea - an unforgettable glint in his eye that shone as brightly as his musical talent, brightening up many a dull day.
A gentleman, and the most gentle of men, we are all the richer for having known him, however briefly, and very much the poorer for his passing.

My deepest condolences to Eamonn, Marion and Breda on the loss of your beloved brother Ger. A man of many talents who was recognised as one of the greats of the music world with the many songs that he wrote that hit the big time. There was a soft humble side of Gerry when he was recognised as the Galway man of Calcutta raising huge funds for the young Indian children which had no homes or families. Fond memories of Jerry mostly good. Rest in pease dead friend.

My sincere sympathy to Marion, breda, eamonn and all the mulholland family. Rest in peace gerry.

So sad to hear of Gerry's passing. What a beautiful soul he was. Genuine in every sense. My first recollection of Gerry was in the late sixties, him busking out in Salthill promenade, raing funds for Biafra. A passionate, humorous and gifted musician who loved to entertain. I watched him get the patrons of the Quays Bar lift the piano out on to the street and play and sing for hours non stop to the delight of all the revellers.
My deepest sympathies to Eamonn (former Jes school band mate), Breda and Marion and all the Mulhollands and the late John and Billy.
