Dear All,
I received the very sad news that Pat MacDermott Passed away last
Saturday morning. (20-April-24) His wife, Rosamund,
told me that he had been in a nursing home for the past
three weeks after a long stay in hospital following a serious
stroke in January. Many of us who knew Pat at Blacklion will
have great memories of his many adventures and endless stories.
I recall taking a boat out with him on a dull December evening across
Lough MacNean. On a small island we cut a huge amount of holly and
hauled it back to to decorate St. Augustine's college for Christmas 1967.
Apart from being our choir master he was a talented artist and a
skilled craftsman.
All I can say now is "Recquiescat in pace".
