GUEST,John Conolly Obit: Johnny Collins (6 July 2009) (419* d) RE: Obit: Johnny Collins (6 July 2009) 12 Jul 09

One of my enduring memories of Johnny is of arriving as a "new boy" at a lakeside Shanty Festival in Poland and being guided to the main venue by Johnny's amazing voice booming across the lake from about half-a-mile away...I'm so glad I had the privilege of sharing a shanty-stage with this lovely man on many occasions - I'm so sorry to hear of his passing, and can only hope that Johnny has found his very own version of "Fiddlers' Green" . .
    "And when you're in Dock and the long trip is through -
      There's pubs and there's clubs and fine curries there too -
      The singing of songs ,and the company of friends-
      Where the sun never sets and the song never ends..."

          With love and sympathy to Joyce ....
