To my cousin, Margaret, plus all the Lynskey family both in Ireland and England, we offer our most sincere condolences of Padraic’s passing. He was a fantastic husband to Margaret, father, grandfather to the Lynskey clan providing a stable and loving home in Swinford and London. Padraic and Margaret, Publicans, operating the “Bull and Gate” in Kentish Town, London, where they brought unknown numbers of individuals together for conversation, friendship and a pint for more than 40 years.
Ireland will not be the same as was 50 years ago for the Kelly’s of California, but we all will cherish those times with family the rest of our lives,
Thank you Padraic for your contribution to our memories. God Bless this man.
Sincerely,
John, Robin, Christopher, Alaina, Rylan, Declan and Dylan Kelly
