Joe's wife Pim and his family wish to acknowledge the many expressions of sympathy and kindness shown to them in their sad loss. We offer our heartfelt thanks to Joe's many friends, our wonderful neighbours and relatives who supported us during this time. We greatly appreciate the care given to Joe over the years from Dr Schlunke and the Thomastown Medical Centre and Dr. Jim Drynan.

Special thanks to Fr. Dan Bollard for all his support. For his kindness and professionalism we thank Clyde Myler Funeral directors and finally our thanks to the Thomastown Folk Choir and the Thomastown Gardaí.

To all who helped our family, your contribution made our loss more bearable. As it would be impossible to thank everyone individually, please accept this acknowledgement as a token of our deepest gratitude. The Holy Sarcrafice of the Mass will be offered for your intentions.
