We are deeply saddened to hear of the death of PJ. He was a great friend and neighbour to many over the years in Dugort & Achill. He travelled the world when he could but always returned to Dugort, to his brothers and his business & fantastic Caravan Park. He worked very hard providing a great service to all in Achill and further afield. We have many fond memories of the little shop as kids, many generations have since walked through the door to PJ. You will be greatly missed, Dugort & Achill won't be the same without you. Thank you for all you did for so many over the years. My dearest Godfather, may your gentle soul rest in Eternal peace. Our sincerest sympathy to your nephews James & Patrick, extended family & friends. Forever in our hearts, with love R&M xx

Henry , & Una Keane, 1 year 5 months

Rest in peace PJ, a true gentleman.
Thought your life, you were a living example of what can be achieved by hard work.
You created a business (Seal Caves) in an empty field, fueled by determination, and a dream to succeed.
While doing all this you were a Carer to your brother's Daniel,and Mike(RIP).
As the local shop keeper, your kindness, and generosity helped many local families, though difficult times.
Your travels around the world, were the stuff of legend.
Your stories from places like Moscow, Tokyo, New York were amazing.
Time to rest now, after a life well lived.
May the blessings of God be with you.
Henry Keane.
