The penultimate tradgedy in Doggies case is that his niece was murdered in Cobh in the last year or so. I know his brother and the man has never recovered.

Server with Doggie on the Deirdre and Eithne. So sad for a young man like Doggie to die, I have many good memories of him and I hope that he is well remembered.

Doggie was a very young man, does anybody know what he died of ????

The naval service is a poorer place for the loss of his expierience.

He will be sadly missed!

Doggie was one of the true gents in the NS. Served with him on Aisling back in the 80's. A really great guy, and will be sadly missed

Doggie was one of those rare cox'ns - he made a difficult job look easy. A great man for a singsong and to play the guitar. Most of all, a fine seaman.

RIP
