the weekend was inspiring as he was so humble and very pleasant. The concert in Croke Park was outstanding and no doubt, must have given Pope Francis hours of pleasure as it did those of us lucky enough to see it, and all present for the occasion. I hope that his kind words may bring consolation in some small way to people in all walks of life, who have suffered many years of indiscretions caused to them and relieve their pain and distress somewhat. Congratulations to the organisers and Gardaí in each venue throughout the weekend for their help and tireless work. Take a bow!! From Kathleen Woulfe.
