Just to let you all know in case you may not have heard.
I received a letter from Dr Niall Mc Keith one of Bills colleagues in Maynooth, telling me that Bill has been posthumously awarded his Doctorate in Science.
It will be presented to Bills Wife at a cermony in November.
He had completed his Doctoral Thesis so it will be a proud and sad day for his family.
Well done Dr. Bill Lanigan.
Rest In Peace from all of us.
TC

Congratulations, Dr Lanigan.

If lusty love should go in quest of beauty, where should he find it fairer than in Blanch? If zealous love should go in search of virtue, where should he find it purer than in Blanch?

...its a very small world..We are doing work for both Bills wife and parents this week.

While speaking to his wife the conversation inevitably drifted to motorbikes and she relayed to me the tragedy of her loss.

I sadly did'nt have the oppertunity to meet Bill, but from what I have witnessed he must have been quiet a guy.

RIP doctor.
