Subject: RE: Obit: Siobhan O'Donovan Irish Dance Teacher From: Gweltas Date: 13 Jan 13 - 07:30 PM I have fond memories of Joe and Siobhán when they represented Ireland at the Lowender Peran Celtic Festival in Perranporth, Cornwall, many years ago. It was a joy to be in their company and I recall being sore from laughing after every time I met them, not only in Cornwall, but on the many occasiomns in Ireland also. I was saddened to hear of their passing and my condolences go to their family and friends. |

Subject: RE: Obit: Siobhan O'Donovan Irish Dance Teacher From: GUEST,Sheelagh Hanly, Sligo Date: 03 Aug 14 - 05:46 PM Joe and Siobhan stayed in our house during the three fleadhanna in Sligo and we really enjoyed their company. Siobhan always said that set dancing was a natural Physiotherapy. She enjoyed life and they both loved to stay with us when the Fleadh was in Sligo. We kept in touch for some years but with one thing and another we lost contact. Joe was such a gentleman and they were fantastic ambassadors for Irish Culture when they went abroad as they did to the USA to bring the set dancing out there. May their gentle souls rest in peace and may God be good to them. Sheelagh and John Hanly |
