3 years ago this week we said goodbye to Jack. Two questions: Has there ever been a non Irish person as beloved in Ireland as him? And is there a way we can slow down time? (3 fecking years!)

1. I’ll go back a bit further and suggest St Patrick.

2. He is without a doubt the only universally loved English man in Ireland. A hero.

   Give it a lash, Jack!

3. Jim Larkin? His parents were Irish but he was born in Liverpool

4. Conor McGregor

5. St Patrick
   Michael Flately
   Daniel Day Lewis
   S/

6. Non-Irish? Arguably. JFK maybe back in the day.

   English? Probably not

7. Lesser known to then Jack but we’ve claimed Danial day Lewis as one of our own
