I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Stephen. Although I did not have the chance to know him well, my heart goes out to all of you during this difficult time. Please accept our deepest sympathies and know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

In times of sorrow, I find comfort in the words of the Bible. I hope these words bring you some solace:

I wish that my family and I could be there to help console you in person. Even though we are far away, please know that our love and support are with you. May the love of family and friends bring you peace, and may the memories of Stephen be a source of comfort.

Dearest Gerry, Louise and family. we were heart-broken at the news of Stephen's passing away. Listening to the celebration of the mass for your wonderful son on the webcam was like a healing balm to those who listened and shared with you the wonderful young man who Stephen was to everybody who knew him. It was such a beautiful service and one could not help but be over-whelmed and moved. It was such a great send off for Stephen. The rising of the sun, the setting of the moon and. the longest day. These spoken words were Perfect in every way along with the readings chosen were magical and loving. Stephen seemed to be still radiating that great love he had within him even as we participated in saying fare-well to him. Stephen May You Rest in Peace . Amen

To Gerry, Louise and all my cousins, I am deeply sorry to hear the news about Stephen. He was such a lovely man, always full of smiles and laughs, I wish I had had more time to get to know him better. My heart goes out to you all during this incredibly difficult time. I hope you all find strength in the wonderful life he was able to live.

The most engaging, adorable, heartfelt, mischevious smile always Steven.

I worked with Monks a few years ago and I remember we were on a night out in a pub in Rathmines chatting away. I was quite new to the job at the time but I remember he had said to me if I ever needed anything, just to let him know and he'd help me out. That was the type of lad he was. Top fella, absolutely heart breaking news. RIP Monks 🙏♥️
