Death of Pat Tynan: On Wednesday 5th October, shock and disbelief spread across the tight-knit community of St Joseph’s Avenue, Boherlahan, at the unexpected death of Pat Tynan in his own home. Pat was an unassuming person who lived out his life in a quiet way. He was a very sensitive, kind-hearted and inoffensive person with his own unique witty sense of humour. Pat was endowed with an exceptional talent for music. In life he brought great joy and hope to many with this gift. His harmonica was never far from him and he loved to play with the most talented of musicians. His involvement always raised the standard of music to a much higher level. His creativity also found expression in drawings, sketches and paintings. He was fascinated by the intricacies of engines and the new technologies, spending endless hours working out the mechanics of them. His lorry-driving took him to faraway places, which provided him with the opportunity to acquaint musical hot spots. Pat had his own motorbike, which gave him great freedom and a means of leaving the burdens of life behind. It was only fitting that his biker friends should have formed a guard of honour for him. Pat was the son of the much loved Nell who was sacristan in the local church for many years. Our sympathy is extended to his father Jackie, sister Josephine Hassett, brother-in-law Oliver, niece Jacqueline, nephews Leo, Jason and Darren, uncles, aunts, neighbours and friends. His remains were removed from Devitt’s Funeral Parlour on Friday evening to the Church of the Immaculate Conception, Boherlahan and, after concelebrated Requiem Mass on the following day, burial took place in Ardmayle Cemetery.
