I am very sad to see the death reported of Shane MacThomais who was the resident historian for Glasnevin Cemetery. May he rest in peace.

Like so many, I was shocked to hear the news. I met Shane a couple of times and found him charming, fascinating and always felt he would be a great man to go for a pint with. His knowledge and passion for history was infectious. Glasnevin will not be the same without him. My sympathies to his family and colleagues at Glasnevin.
Rest in peace Shane

RIP Shane

My condolences to your family.

He brought myself and my family around a few years ago. As previous poster said, his knowledge and passion for history was infectious. Cannot put this any better.

Rest in Peace.
