Our deepest condolences to Caitriona and Myra and to Conor and Robyn.
We both will always remember our time spent with Joe, he was such great company to be around.
May Joe rest in peace.

Sincerest condolences to all Joe's family.
I knew him through my time working in the B12/ Folate lab. He was a great organiser, lunchtime rounders in Phoenix Park to Christmas singing for the old folks party. A great family man too, lots of stories about his 2 daughters over coffee break. RIP Joe.

Our sincere sympathy to Jim, Mary and all the Mc Partlin Family.

I just heard the sad news of Joe's passing. I have very fond memories of working with him in St. James's. He was always good humoured and it was great to chat with him. A wonderful scientist. Ar dheis Dé go raibh sé.

Thinking of Joe’s family at this time. An absolute gentleman who was so kind and patient during my student days. Sincere condolences

So sad to hear of Joe's passing. We hadn't seen him for a number of years but have very fond memories of him from working in the Mater and later in St. James's. He was always great company and fun to be around as well as having a depth of knowledge that he carried lightly and shared so generously. A dedicated scientist with a wonderful personality.

It was a privilege to share the stage with Joe and an absolute joy to work with and call him a friend.
He will be missed by all the family in the dlr Mill Theatre. Joe has left our community an unbelievable gift with his work in establishing the Mill and his legacy will be felt by generations by all who visit it.
Deepest condolences to Myra, Caitriona, Robyn and all his family. Enjoy your sing song my friend!

So very sorry to hear of Joe’s passing, sincerest condolences to his family. I have lovely memories of working with Joe for a summer in the B-vitamin lab St James and had the great pleasure of attending lots of conferences with him over the years and being entertained with his songs and stories. He was a fantastic teacher, a talented performer and a truly lovely person to be with. May he rest in peace.

Deepest sympathies to the Mcpartlin family. Joe was always a kind and welcoming man. My thoughts are with Myra and her family at this time.

We were so sorry to learn of the death of Catriona’s dad, Dr Joe and wish to convey our heartfelt sympathy to her and to all the family circle.May Joe’s soul rest in Peace.

Spent 3 very enjoyable & formative years being entertained encouraged & advised by Joe in SPD labs in St James’ back in the late 1980s. One of those warm characters who left an indelible imprint in the memory …..thought I’d forgotten all that until a few years ago when I encountered his reincarnation in some dodgy European Irish pub when I first met Caitriona….& it all came to life again !
Heartfelt condolences to you all

I just heard the sad news of Joe's passing. Joe was a classmate of mine in Brunner. I last saw him when he came to visit me for a few days in February. He was upbeat despite his prognosis and was determined to fight it. In the months that followed we stayed in regular contact. Joe never gave up. His sense of humour and optimistic nature never deserted him. My sincere condolences to Joe's daughters Caitriona and Myra, and to his extended family. RIP Joe.

Joe was a classmate throughout our school days. He had a great attitude to life and a wicked sense of humour. He was very dedicated in his work. In discussing public affairs, he thought matters through carefully but could graciously consider the views of others who disagreed.
Early in the year, we had a walk around the old haunts of the Basin and and back park. We sat on the bench opposite Kelly's Lane on which the gang sat for years discussing how we could save the world. He was hopeful of a good outcome to his illness but it was not to be. He will have to make the planned album in a better place now.
Condolence to Joe's family on their irreplaceable loss.

We were deeply saddened to hear about Joe’s passing. Joe's warm spirit, infectious smile, his quick sense of humour and love for life made him a pleasure to be around. His guitar playing brought so much happiness to everyone, and it was always a treat to hear him play, whether it was a casual evening or a lively neighbourly party, Joe made every moment more special.

He had a rare gift, not only with his music but in the way he connected with people. We will always cherish the memories of those great gatherings where Joe’s energy and talent lit up the room. Joe’s memory will live on in the hearts of everyone who had the privilege to know him.

So sorry for your loss Myra & Caitriona, your dad was always so lovely. Thinking of you and all the family at this difficult time.

I offer my sympathies to Joe's family at this sad time. I have many good memories of Joe over the years, starting in April 1978 when Joe, nearing the end of his Ph.D. research, came with David Powell to our final year Biochemistry class in UCD, seeking to recruit aspiring Ph.D. students. Joe was always friendly and interesting to talk to over the years, first in the Mater Hospital, and later in St. James's.

Our deepest sympathy to all the family.Joe was a wonderful colleague and special person .Rest in Peace Joe.

Very sad to hear the news of Joe's passing. He was a gentleman, loved the chats and was very funny. Always had time for everyone who worked in the IMM/TTMI at TCD/St. James's hospital. He was in good spirits when we met in April and showed great positivity, despite his illness. Rest in peace, Joe.

Our sincere sympathies Caitriona, Conor & Robyn on your loss. Thinking of you and your family at this sad time.

It was with a greatly saddened heart that I read the article in last weeks Irish Times on palliative care in which Joe featured. Joe's comments displayed great courage and humility in what must have been a very difficult time for him. It was what I had come to expect from Joe. A wonderful man and a real pal. May you rest in your final peace.

Sincere condolences to family and friends

Deepest sympathy to the family on Joe’s passing. He was such an important part of the research community at TCD / St James’s, first in the Sir Patrick Duns labs and later in the Institute of Molecular Medicine. Joe was always kind, thoughtful, humorous and generous with his time and was part of the “glue” that held us all together both scientifically and socially. With sincere condolences.

Farwell to you Joe,a Brunner boy of the 69rs. Your life and times spread over many different aspects in Irish life. Our reunion was made richer by your presence. Your many posts to our class page were always worth waiting for. Your advice during Covid was a life-saver. Your rambles along the Grand Canal detailing all that was to be seen was great. Joe we are all the richer for having you in our company.
Rest now in peace your work is done.
May I offer my sincere condolences to all your family.

My sincere condolences on the loss of your Father, Caitriona. Sending warm wishes to you and your family during this time.
