John Kenny

Deepest and most sincere sympathy on the death of John.
He was a wonderful colleague in Aer Lingus - always kind and respectful to us Cabin Crew - our days were brightened by inter-acting with him.
John was one of life's true gentlemen and those of us who knew him carry that memory in our hearts.

Sincere condolences to Killian, Kathleen and all the Kenny family on the sudden passing of Sean. May he rest in peace.

Sincere condolences to the Kenny Family & friends on the sudden death of your beloved John. May his gentle soul rest in peace!

I recall his charming collegiality during our exchange of ‘inflight floats’ for at least two decades when he worked in Cashiers for EI. A true gentleman.

It was with great sorrow that we learned of John’s sudden passing, our heartfelt sympathy and condolences to the Kenny family on your sad loss. I was privileged to work with John in Crew Control and typical of Johns friendship we stayed in touch throughout the many years thereafter, albeit we have not met for as long and sadly no longer can. John was truly one of life’s gentlemen and we will always have many fond memories of his kindness, empathy and support. He will be missed by many. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dílis.

may you rest in peace dear john, you were such a gentleman and a pleasure to have worked with you

For John, my beloved brother as you take your final Camino today:

"Anoche cuando dormía
soñé, ¡bendita ilusión!,
que una colmena tenía
dentro de mi corazón;

y las doradas abejas
iban fabricando en él,
con las amarguras viejas,
blanca cera y dulce miel."

Last night while I was sleeping
I dreamed, blessed illusion!
that I had a hive 
inside my heart;

and the golden bees
were manufacturing in it,
with the old bitterness,
white wax and sweet honey.
Antonio Machado

Rest peacefully under your blanket of stars my dear one. Thank you. ¡Ultreya!

My condolence to Seán's sisters, brothers and extended family on the loss of a much loved and devoted brother. John was a man of the highest characteristics: absolute integrity, loyal, ever courteous, invariably calm under pressure, possessing a delightful sense of humour and helpful to all; ensuring his legacy: an inspirational role model, numerous good deeds, and memories cherished by all privileged to have known him. With deepest sympathy, Jim Larkin.

My sincere sympathy to all John's family on his sudden death. I first met John when he worked in Cashier's with Maurice Schwer and then in Crew Control. I think all cabin crew hoped to get "the lovely John" at the other end of the phone when they were looking for a favour. He was an absolute gentleman and it is a very sad day to hear of his sudden death. May He Rest In Peace.

So sorry to hear of Sean’s death. He always visited my mother anytime he was here in the west — often on his bike. His family supported me when I first came to Dublin to study and Sean was like a big brother to me. Mum died last March so hopefully she will welcome him in the afterlife. Condolences from me and my siblings who have fond memories of Sean, one of life’s gentlemen for sure. Ar dhéis Dé go raibh a anam.

Sincere condolences to all the Kenny family on the sad loss of your brother Sean. A true gentleman.

So sorry to learn of John’s sudden passing. A true gentleman.
May he rest in peace.

In 1963 when I joined Aer Lingus, John was the first person to greet and welcome me. He made me feel like he has just been waiting for me to fill that desk beside his. That warmth was so natural for him. It never changed over all these years and even with an ocean between us. John, you were a great friend. I will never forget you.
My sincere condolences to the Kenny family.

Deepest sympathy to all Kenny family. May Sean Rest in Peace

My deepest condolences to Johns family and friends. John was always kind, helpful and treated everyone with respect and empathy, a true gentleman. May he rest in peace.

Sincere sympathy to Johns family on his passing . I worked with him in AerLingus and in latter years often met him walking in the Phoenix Park. A true gentleman.
May he Rest In Peace.

Hi Emer, I joined Aer Lingus in 1970 and the first time I went to,'Cashiers' John said Hello Ann Keating and I was delighted that he remembered me from athletics, you and I would have competed in the same events Emer. Throughout my time in Aer Lingus we used to discuss athletic events and I always felt better after an encounter with him. John was loved and respected by all who worked with him. Condolences to you and all your family.

A gentle soul. A true gentleman.
My deepest sympathies to the family, and all his friends. Sincere apologies that I cannot make Thursday to say my farewell, but my thoughts and prayers will be with you.
John, may you rest in peace.
Gone but not forgotten.

Sincere sympathy to all of Johns family on his sad passing. A more kind and caring person would be hard to find. He treated everyone equally and with respect. Without doubt one of natures true gentlemen. Rest in peace John.

So sorry to hear of Sean’s sudden and sad passing.

It was with great sadness that I learned of John’s death. We worked together in Aer Lingus Cashiers section in the mid-1970s. Behind his exact countenance lay a warm and friendly person with an impressive intellect. I last spoke with him a few weeks ago and was shocked at his sudden passing. He was one of the people that made working in Aer Lingus such an enjoyable experience. He will be greatly missed.

So sorry to hear of John's passing, I had the honour and pleasure of working with him in Crew Control. John was always such a gentleman, thoughtful and considerate with a great sense of humour. He will be missed by many. Sincere condolences.

It was with great sorrow that I learned of John’s death. He was a true gentleman and a great ambassador for Aer Lingus.I worked with John for many years in Cashiers where he was a wonderful colleague. In 2007 I walked my first Camino de Santiago. In conversation with John he informed me that he and his good friend Tommy O’Kelly (also of Cashiers) had cycled the Camino many years before at a time when very few people had even heard of the Camino.He was a fountain of knowledge. May he Rest in Peace.

My deepest sympathy to Johns family & friends on his passing.It is a terrible shock to you all & a sad day for all of us who knew him from his days in Crew Control.He almost apologised when he called us to put us on a flight when we were on reserve!! He was so kind,thoughtful & caring person.May John Rest In Peace

To the Kenny family, I wish to offer our sincere condolences. Sean was a great neighbour and a friend to our family. He will be so sadly missed on our road and community

I was so sad to hear about gentleman johns passing. He was so loved by all,
He called me young Kimberly.
I came in one day not feeling well and he told me to go home because no one would be waiting with a gold medal! That wouldn’t happen now!! He was so kind to everyone.
Sincere condolences to all his family.
Rest in peace dear John

I'm sorry to hear of John's death. I had the pleasure of working with John in Cashiers a long ago now. We also shared an interest in walking and cycling. John was a man of principle with strong convictions and one couldn't meet a sounder person. Deepest sympathies to John's family

We are deeply saddened at John's passing. We met 50+ years ago when his sister Emer married our brother Tony. A true Gentleman is a perfect description of him. I will miss meeting him in Blanchardstown Town centre. Rest in peace with your Mam and Dad.

Sheila and family I was so sorry to hear of beautiful Sean's death. Such a lovely lovely man... I have great memories from childhood of him and his kindness. May he rest in peace xxJo

We were shocked and saddened to hear of the sudden death of Seán .It is with great fondness that I recall Seán's kindness to me when I arrived in Dublin in the early 60s, as a young country student.-meeting me at the train,showing me where the nearest bus stops were and even how to cross the busy city streets.
His wonderful parents Aiden and Mai made me part of their family,bringing me so many Sundays into .the heart of their busy household. Our sincere sympathy to Emer, Ken, Kilian, Aiden, Declan, Colm, Enda and Sheila on the loss of their lovely brother. May Seán rest in peace..

We would like to offer our deepest sympathies to Emer & Tony, all of Sean’s family & friends on the passing of your lovely brother. May he Rest In Peace.

What can I say that hasn't been said already about our much loved colleague & friend John. I also had the pleasure of working with John in Crew Control & a kinder, more caring person one couldn't meet. I remember a wet morning when a CCM checked in with John & happened to mention she had got a puncture on the way to work. John being the gentleman he was offered to fix the puncture for her while she operated her flight & sure enough when she returned he had changed the tyre for her.
Heartfelt sympathies to all John's family. He will be sorely missed.

So sad to hear this news, John was such a kind and respectful gentleman. He was so nice to everyone he worked with. May he rest in peace.

I feel so lucky that I had the pleasure of working with John in AL. It was always a good day when John answered the phone. One of life’s true gentlemen. Sincere condolences to his family and all who loved him. Rest in peace John.

May we send our sincere condolences to the Kenny family on the death of their brother sean he was a true gentleman. He will be sadly missed by one and all.May he r.i.p in the arms of the lord and may God put his arms around the Kenny family at this sad time. paddy and Kay mooney

I am so sorry to hear of johns passing. He was such a lovely gentleman. Always so kind to cabin crew, i have grt memories of him from my days in dubin. My sincere condolences to the kenny family and hes many friends. 💔

I first met John when we worked in Cashiers in the late 60's. We became good friends and shared a common interest in hillwalking. In 1970 we went to Morocco and spent 2 weeks walking in the Atlas Mountains. John was a wonderful companion then as he was many times later on the Wicklow Hills. I lost touch with him after I retired in 1994 but spoke to him on the phone about 2 years ago. Sadly we never met up again.

John was one of those people who never spoke ill of anyone . His great friend Jimmy Larkin described him to me yesterday as " A true stalwart in every field". The things said about John in the list of Condolences say it all.

God Rest You John. Brian&Maria Fagan

I’m so sad to hear about John passing.He was the kindest most caring person ever and yes he did have that mischievous smile.I always felt he was the closest thing to a saint and I loved him dearly.unfortunately can’t pay my respects in person because of covid .Rip John
