Dear Roisin, my deepest condolences for you and your family on Justin's sudden death. It was so lovely to meet you and Justin at the midsummer event in Zion church, I so much appreciated your warm interaction and comments! In the couple of times I met Justin I was very impressed by his humble and kind manner, a man who's done so much from his faith for the church, for global justice and for creation. God has called him closer now and he's no doubt watching over you all. I'm away from Ireland at the moment but I followed online the beautiful funeral from Shankill, my first parish when I arrived in Ireland. May the memories, prayers and support bring comfort to you and your family; Justin and you all are in my prayers.
Sending my deepest condolences to Roisin and family for your sudden loss. I had the pleasure to work under Justin's leadership in Trócaire for over a decade. May he rest in peace.

Justin and I spoke only briefly at a Caring for Creation conference last November and by phone afterwards but he set me on the correct path and aided me in establishing a Sustainable Energy Community for the Dublin Archdiocese - his quiet manner was incredibly efficient and influential! I am grateful to him and deeply saddened at his loss. My condolences to his family and his friends in SAGE.

Dear Roisín and family,
I was so shocked and saddened to hear of Justin's untimely passing, while I was away. I feel priviledged to have known and worked with Justin over many years. He inspired me frequently, and his humanity and kindness were integral to everything he was involved in.
I hope you find comfort in wonderful memories and that you are surrounded by love and kindness as you come to terms with your loss.

Very saddened to learn of the sudden passing of Justin Kilcullen. Condolences to all his family. I had the privilege to work with Justin in Trocaire during his time as President of CONCORD. He was always so friendly, kind and wise. A great leader. May he rest in peace.
Deepest sympathy to you Roisin on the sudden and heartbreaking passing of your beloved Justin and also to Eoin, Michael, Ruth and to your grandchildren and the extended Kilcullen family. Justin was an inspiring and born leader, kind, courageous, compassionate, wise and great company to spend time with.
When I think of Justin I'm always reminded about one of his favourite sayings "Live Simply so that Others can Simply Live". He lived the Gospel message of love and devoted his life to his family, friends, good causes, the poor and marginalised. I had the privilege to travel with Justin to Africa and Asia on many occasions and I feel enormous gratitude for the treasured memories I have of those field visits and more especially learning from the master while I worked in Trocaire.
Please be assured of my prayers in the coming days/weeks.
May you rest in peace dear friend, Justin.

Sincere sympathies on the death of Justin. He instilled a deep understanding of development and injustice into the wider community. He will be missed by many but especially his family. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
I was deeply shocked to hear of Justin’s passing, having spoken to him only a few weeks ago and seen how much he was enjoying life. I got to know Justin while working with Trócaire and especially enjoyed when he addressed gatherings of staff about Trócaire’s mission. He always related it to the story of a person and, often, the quiver in his voice showed how deeply he felt was the importance of valuing that person’s life and dignity. Sincere sympathy to Róisín and family.
So sorry to hear of Justin’s passing. Sincere sympathy to all the Kilcullen family on your sad loss. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a h-anam dilis.
My deepest sympathy to Roisin and the Kilcullen family. May Justin rest in peace. His good deeds were many and go before him.

Eoin, my deepest condolences, my heart goes to your family through this heartbreaking times.
Deepest sympathy to Roisin and family on the passing of Justin. I recall travelling to Rwanda with Justin. The change over in Paris was rather confusing. Justin remained calm and entertaining throughout. A great travelling companion.
My deepest sympathies on the very sad passing of Justin. I worked on Trocaire when Justin was CEO and he was an inspiring leader, always highlighting the root causes of injustice and poverty. He was also incredibly warm, engaging and funny! He has left a huge legacy and will be missed by many. May he Rest in Peace.
Sincerest condolences to Roisin, Eoin, Michael and Ruth on the sad loss of Justin. A wonderful neighbour and friend.

To Rōisīn and all the Kilcullen family, I’m truly sorry and shocked to hear of Justin’s sudden passing. As a fellow board member of St Anne’s, it’s been such a privilege working alongside Justin and experiencing first hand his counsel and leadership. May he rest in peace.
Sincerest condolences to the Kilcullen family. Justin was a remarkable leader in the quest for justice and development. Indeed, I remember fondly during a rebranding of Trócaire in the early noughties, staff remarking that the new tagline should be ‘Working for Justin and Development’ such was his influence. He’d come to the canteen to stuff envelopes with thank you letters for donors, he’d eat his lunch with the staff and really listen to what even the newest intern had to say. And who can forget the tradition he started, way back in Booterstown in the 1990s, of ‘Director’s ice cream day’, when he would buy an ice cream for everyone on the hottest day of the year. Rest in peace, Justin, you have achieved what you had set out to do: The world is indeed a more just world for your having been in it.
To Róisín, Eoin, Michael, Ruth, Alice, Cian, and all the extended Kilcullen family,I am so sorry to hear of the death of your beloved husband, Dad, and Grandad.
I have known Justin for many years as a parent and grandparent, and I had the privilege of working with him on St. Anne's School Board of Management for four years.
Justin was a true leader, visionary, and always kind. We are so grateful for the huge contribution he has made to our school over the last eight years. He will be greatly missed.
My thoughts are with the family at this difficult time.
