The Death of Brian Lenihan - Expression of Sympathy from Archbishop Jackson
Expression of Sympathy from the Most Revd Dr Michael Jackson, Archbishop of Dublin and Primate of Ireland:
"As the full impact of the death of Mr Brian Lenihan TD sinks in, both
at home and abroad, I wish to express sympathy to all members of his
family.
I should like also to honour the courage of someone who battled
gracefully and faithfully with cancer. He did so while neglecting none
of his arduous and complex political duties.
Service combined with selflessness in the case of someone of tremendous
civic energy and instinct for leadership. His immense contribution to
Irish life will be appreciated fully only in retrospect."
