Whenever I am out and about with my husband, it is my custom to ask people who approach us, to pose for a photo with Jim. I included many of these photographs in my book but I didn't put in any of people who had passed away for fear of upsetting anybody. Now I realize that I was wrong. People like to remember familiar faces which we no longer see. Here are 3 such photos that I came across lately. The man in the wheelchair in all three is Jim Cogan.
Michael Cody R.I.P. formerly of Ballybunion Rd. and St Michael's College
Dan Browne R.I.P. well loved butcher and local businessman
Mrs. O'Loughlin R.I. P. formerly of Church St., Jim's first landlady when he came to Listowel.
