Just remembering an old friend GERRY KENNEDY this time 2 years ago he left my house in great form
little did i know what we were faceing later on in the day in my thoughts forever
A gentleman, the like of which, will not pass our way again.
He was not alone....
but he really felt he was, a lone man fighting a tide of rust and indifference
up until he met Brensports.
I still can't believe that lightning strikes twice,
but the Lord putting both Gerry Kennedy and Brendan O'Beirne,
two committed FIAT lunatics in the one town, is proof enough of that. 
Credit where credit is due, he really really enjoyed his life in Ballinakill
because of the O'Beirnes.
I would go as far as to say they were the happiest years in his life.
Thank you Brendan, Liz, BJ and the red headed Rosin too.
the Fiat passion is being kept alive in the emerald isle and Bren is catching up on him with the 131s after all
He would love to have heard about the recent cache of
131's un-earthed this year in the R.O.I.
and the maturing of the event scene and
most importantly he would have been delighted
to see so many good condition cars now in caring hands.
He got a great send off on the day of the funeral,
and again thanks for the support shown on that freezing cold day
2 years ago.
P.S. Thank you O'Beirnes for the invaluable assistance
with Gerry's headstones. The FIAT 132 headstone, which you comissioned
and which stood alone and proud over Gerry still turns heads to this day
and the black headstone too, which you organized. Thank you.
