Eamon Doogue Remembered
(21/9/2017)
I really did not know Eamon very well
but he was always at the RDS Divine Mercy Conferences
and Sr Briege’s big Masses in Phibsboro.
I really only bumped into him.
But he was always cheerful. A gentleman.
With a soft and crinkly face and smiling eyes.
And i remember his beautiful playing of the violin.
I always felt i had a friend in Eamon.
In prayer and in faith-filled music.
God, he stuck it well.
A great ad for the healing power of spiritual songs.
He never missed a Conference until he was well into his 90’s.
The stuff of legends. Dublin legends.
Carlow legends.
(You can see Eamon with Br Aloysius in the photo of one of the first Conferences. I am only 30 years old in this photo)
