Paddy Heron has passed away

Patrick Heron
Hi all, this is Paddy’s daughters here. Our Dad passed away peacefully at home yesterday, January 2nd, at noon. He was very brave and had fought courageously since his diagnosis last July. We are so grateful and blessed to have had such an amazing father. His faith was relentless and when he asked God to take him he went swiftly minutes later. God truly answered his prayers. He is home. Thank you for your well wishes and prayers from us and our Mam, Catherine.
Apologies to those who are only seeing this now who we didn’t reach in person. Arrangements will be in the newspapers tomorrow.
God Bless, Emily, Leah & Klara.

Sad for the world; an added Blessing for Heaven.

Very sorry to hear this.   Prayers for his family.

Oh, yes, so sad for us. Father blessed us with him. I think you're right Jem. My prayers for the family.

My condolences to his wife and daughters at this very side time. I have read a few of his books which I really enjoyed. My heart goes out to his family having trod the same path some years ago. May our Heavenly Father give them comfort. God Bless xx

Sorry to hear this news as well. Condolences to his family. I always thought it would be great to sit down over a Guiness and have a long banter with the Irishman. Maybe one day yet.

Hey bubba unchained, happy to have you here and I hope you'll enjoy your stay here. I agree with one exception; I'll take a nice extra bitter red ale and you and Paddy can have the Guiness'.    I have a few of Paddy's books as well. I got some of my introduction to the nephilim stuff from him early on and he will be missed.

Back in my younger days,   , I went to the beach with some friends and one afternoon one of them brought a small cooler of Guinness Extra Stout Dark bottles down.  I told him he was crazy....that that was NOT a beach beer for drinking in 95 degree weather under the hot sun.   I took one out and made a hole in the white sand with my fist and told him to watch.   I poured the Guinness Extra Stout into the little sand cup I'd made in the sand and it just sat there.....it would not absorb into the sand or nothing.  After about 15 or 20 minutes, it finally disappeared and everyone laughed about it.  I haven't had one in 30 years, but it's a nice acquired taste for indoor use only.         I'm sure Paddy would know what I'm talking about.

"BLACK AND TANS'. It's the American Way of handling a Guinness!   

But Dove, my Scot-Irish ancestors from northern Ireland would've rolled over in their graves if I had ever put my lips to a Guinness turned into a "black and tan!"        

Winston Churchill's Black and Tans are still a bitter memory to the Irish!  It had to be an American-British conspiracy to take an Irish stout, mix it with a British ale, and then call it a "black and tan."   Disgraceful!     

sing on....."Come out, Ye Black and Tans"

I was born on a Dublin street where the Royal drums did beat,
And the loving English feet walked all over us;
And every single night, when me Dad would come home tight,
He'd invite the neighbours outside with this chorus:
Oh, come out you Black and Tans;
Come out and fight me like a man;
Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders;
Tell her how the I.R.A. made you run like hell away
From the green and lovely lanes in Killeshandra.

P.S.

Question:  What do you get when you mix a Guinness stout with a British ale?



Answer:  a drunk nephilim hybrid.    

So,so, FUNNY!!!     I can't grin this big.  My cheeks hurt!
