It still, even after more then a month, seems so hard to believe, that Mike Gillen is no longer among us. Of course, like so many people, I got the pleasure and the joy to get to know Mike in the almost legendary SHAMROCK ☘️ in Hamburg. Thank you Mike Gillen for those amazing, seemingly endless nights in Hamburgs first Irish ☘️ Pub ever and for your kindness, your welcoming character, the many hilarious laughs and just being the charismatic, unique character you were.

Our paths crossed for roughly 10 years, while working in the Shamrock from 1992 to 1995. It was there I first got to hear his unforgettable rendition of Raglan Road & Kilkelly Ireland; it was there I got to see his entertaining of and generosity to customers, employees, friends & our family.

My sincere sympathy to Michael's wife and family as well as to his sister Pat Murphy and all the extended Gillen family on the unexpected death of Michael. We met many years ago while visiting Michael's sister, Pat in her home on Clonliffe Road, Dublin when we were all young. Michael had that air of adventure about him even then and he did indeed become a self-made person who travelled, and was successful in his business endeavors, eventually returning to Ireland to lovely Roscarberry. It seems Michael had a full and adventurous life and I hope that is some consolation for his grieving family. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a h'anam dílis.
