Sorry to hear of Sean’s passing. I had always hoped to get to Ireland to see him again. I will have a Mass said for him here. Rest in peace Sean.

Sean will be remembered by his Canadian cousins as a welcoming, warm-hearted and witty fellow. He will be missed by his Aunt Rita, especially. Sending the extended Rankin family our deepest condolences. May happy memories be a comfort at this difficult time.

Dear Emma and Shauna and families, we are devastated to hear of Sean’s passing. His generosity to all Canadian Doherty relatives will always be remembered. Though we haven’t seen Sean for a few years, our sweet Irish cousin was always the welcoming link to our Irish heritage. Go dtí go mbuailfimid arís Seán
