I had the privilege to go to school, work and play underage football at Ard Eoin CIceams with James. He was a real character and always looked out for everyone. The only contact I had with him for about 20 years was the regular birthday greetings from “flash” on Facebook or his posts about cartoons. That all changed when I went back to the club to coach underage team. He was really interested on the development of hurling in his beloved Ard Eoin and was always willing to support me in anyway he could. I am truly grateful for the time and support he gave me. A true Gael taken to soon.
