William (Billy) Cooke

I was very sorry to hear about Billy’s passing.
I’ll have long lasting fond memories of our great walks and adventures with the Green Monks. . I particularly remember climbing Carrantouhil , which I can safely say , none of us would have managed without Billy’s guidance and encouragement.
My deepest sympathies to Hazel and all the family at this time.
May Billy Rest in Peace.

Deepest sympathy to Hazel and family on Billy's passing. He was a terrific colleague and a good friend to many in McCann FitzGerald. I am glad he enjoyed such an active and adventurous retirement. So many people in these messages describe Billy as a gentleman; he absolutely was.

Deepest sympathy to Miranda, Thomas and all the Cooke family. Thinking of you all at this sad time.

My deepest heartfelt condolences to Hazel & family. I had the great pleasure to get to know Billy & Hazel over the last few years. Billy & I had great chats , we would put the world to rights.Billy was a lovely caring family man who was mad about his wife , daughters & grandkids. His eyes sparkled when we spoke about Hazel.
I will miss Billy. RIP

My deepest sympathy Hazel and to all your family on the sad passing of Billy may he rest in peace Theresa smith Vernon Ave

I have very fond memories of Billy when we both worked in the Century very many years ago. Each May he’d organize the “office hike” and lead us to all sorts of lovely places in the Dublin and Wicklow mountains. Golden days indeed! There was even a ditty written about the aforesaid office hike!! My husband Ossie wishes to also add his condolences to mine to all Billy’s family.

Sincere sympathy to Miranda, Thomas, Holly, Kaelan and all the Cooke family on the sad passing of Billy. May all your happy memories bring you comfort at this difficult time.
