    I can’t imagine how difficult it is for anyone losing a loved one at this time especially from Covid 19 and not being able to see them. My Dad is in a nursing home thank God is virus free but it terrifies me the thought of it getting in there.

    @Nigel O’Connor: You’re actually having a moan about a guy who’s just lost his dad in this way? He’s relaying what it’s like for everyone who has gone through this, not just himself or his own family. Give your head a wobble. RIP Mr Dignam and condolences to the Dignam family and to all who have lost a relative to Covid 19 and have not been able to give their loved one a proper goodbye.

    We lost my father in law late April from cancer, not covid..he was in a nursing home…great care..but at the end of the day after 83 years only 8 of us at the funeral was awful…not normal but we realize it could have been worse and I think for years to come it will haunt many many people..bless them.
