In the best tradition of Irish funerals, today is a day for recovering the dignity of Michael Gaine... we gather to acknowledge Michael as someone who loved much and was much loved.
Let's not give in to hatred and bitterness ... there will be better days, we will continue to honour Mike and speak Mike's name with love.
