O’DONOVAN Patrick (Paddy) (Funeral Director), Sallynoggin, Co. Dublin and formerly of Ballywilliam, Co. Wexford – 20th Anniversary away from home September 14th 2026.

Dad, I am often told I am just like you,

I am honoured beyond measure if that is true.

You were the best example of what a man should be,

I am overwhelmed that someone would say that of me.

I never told you enough,

how proud I am to be called your son,

Now that you are gone,

I want to tell everyone.

You gave me much more than a name,

Someday, I hope my sons says the same,”

There’s a special kind of feeling,

When I think about you, Dad,

It’s a pleasure to remember,

All the happy times we’ve had,

There’s a special kind of caring,

That is meant for you alone.

Loved and remembered always.  Michael, Nicole, grand-sons Michael Jnr and Peter xXx
