Dear Nina,
Sincerest condolences on the loss of your dear father. To many of us he was Prof Devlin but to you he was 'Dad' and you will miss him. You were a great carer and advocate for him and I have enjoyed catching up with you over the years in the Mater. I am so glad I had that chance to chat with him the last time I met the two of you. He was a gentleman. May he rest in peace. x

Our sincere condolences to the Devlin family on Jim’s passing

It is with great sadness that I heard of the death of a great mentor of mine Professor James Devlin
He was passionate about Endocrinology and pioneered the use of insulin pumps and was an expert on Growth Hormone.
He was Consultant Endocrinologist in Beaumont and James Connolly Memorial as well as lecturing medical students in RCSI not to mention also working in Richmond Cappagh and Navan
His work ethic was immense and he had a very sharp wit which we all enjoyed
While he was a fantastic physician he was ultimately a family man and he was very proud when his children Dr Joe and Dr Nina followed him into medicine
He was a genius but also a true gentleman and he will be very sadly missed but will always be remembered.

Deepest sympathy to the family of Prof. Devlin, he was a real gentleman. May he rest in peace.

Jim was a wonderful teacher and mentor who guided me in the early years of my career in The Richmond Hospital. To Nina and all of Jim's family, please accept my deepest sympathy.

Jim was a valued member of the Retired Endocrinologists Golf Society (REGS). He participated wholeheartedly in both our annual Golf tournament in Glasson, Athlone and in its associated social activities. His presence at recent REGS events was sorely missed. On a personal note, I have known Jim since his early professional days in the UCD Woodview research facility and during our joint time in the Irish Endocrine Society. May he rest in peace.

My sincere sympathy to the Devlin family. May Jim rest in peace.
