I talked with Russ Kelly this morning. Eoin passed away at home, with Marian and his two children Neil & Enya. He was buried Boxing Day. Anyone wishing to send condolences can e-mail the family at mmorton@esatclear.ie

He was a fun guy and we really partied with him in 2000 at Terry's Meet in Stockport....going to miss his humor and smilin' face. Another example of live life while ya can folks! Eoin did.

Pat and I had the pleasure of Eoin's company at the Cork meet in 1999...he and I had a long conversation about the U.S. and his beloved Ireland. He will be truly missed and the sign world has truly lost a great talent.
God bless his family...I know they know how much he was loved by all.

I'm just back from being away over the holidays, and heard about Eoin - this is shattering news. Such a talented young man, and with a family. My heart goes out to them in their grief.

I just want to add my voice in condolences to the family and to mention that I have added a close-up of Eoins work over in the portfolio section.
It's strange to think I can't just pick up the phone and get Eoin's help anymore. He was a nice guy and a talented craftsman.
