Joseph (Joe) Doherty

Sincere sympathies to Deirdre and all of Joe's family. We knew Joe while working in the Central Bank, he was such a lovely person and so knowledgeable. He always had the time and patience to share his knowledge and help others. He will certainly be missed. It was great to have known him. R.I.P

My sincere sympathy to Joe's wife Deirdre, his children Stephen, Niall and Joanne, and the extended family on the death of Joe. I worked with Joe many years ago in what was then called 'the Economic Affairs Department' in the Bank. Joe was always a very helpful, and most pleasant colleague. May Joe rest in peace.

My Sincere Sympathy to all the Dorothy Family and Extended Family Colette. Sorry to hear of the loss of your brother Joe R.i.p thinking of you all at this difficult time.

My sincere condolences to Colette and family on the sad passing of Joe. May he rest in peace.

Joanne and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Thinking of you all at this time.

My deepest sympathy to Joe's family. Although it has been more than 25 years since we were colleagues in the Central Bank, I still warmly remember Joe's kindness and mentorship during that time, and enjoyed reconnecting during visits to Dublin in the intervening years. May he rest in peace.

Sincere condolences to all the family. I worked with Joe for many years. Joe was an absolute gentleman, such a kind, helpful man. May he rest in peace.

Sorry to hear of Joe’s passing, he was a gentleman to work with. Condolences to all his family and friends .

Sincere sympathy to the O'Doherty family on the death of Joe. A true gentleman. May he rest in peace.

Sincere condolences to Joe's family on his passing. Joe was such a nice man. As his son said at the funeral mass his inability to say no was at a cost to himself at times in doing what he had to do. He was an intellect and above all a gentleman who was respected by all who worked with him May he rest in peace.

My sympathy to the Doherty family. I had occasional contact with Joe over the years and like everyone else here found him a gentleman and great company. I last met him in Nassau St. a fair while ago when he entertained me with stories of the reorganisation of the Bank then, which explained a lot. So sad to hear of his death. RIP

Joe's constant good cheer and great store of knowledge made hm a great colleague and wonderful company in less formal settings.

Rest in Peace, Joe.

So sorry to learn of Joe’s death. We had a very good working relationship when I was in the NTMA and he was one of my regular contacts in the Central Bank. He was always cheerful and helpful. Sadly, we hadn’t met for many years - not, I think, since I retired. My condolences to his wife and family.

Very sad to hear of Joe's passing. Joe was always more a friend than a work colleague to me and so many others. Thoughts and prayers are with all of you in Joe's family at this time and having gone through the pain of his final illness. RIP Joe.

My deepest sympathies to the Doherty family on this sad occasion. I have known Joe as a colleague since 1985 and more recently as a neighbour. Like many others who have posted here, a few themes immediately come to mind when I think of Joe: his humour, decency, sincerity, honesty, extreme helpfulness and, of course, his incredible memory! He was a wonderful colleague and friend and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.

My sincerest condolences to Joanne and all the family on the sad passing of Joe.
