One of the last of the heroes of the McGahern novel TTMFTRS has passed to his reward. John Fox, an incredibly quiet and modest man who acquired the garage and railway sheds from The Shah (Pat McManus) has slipped away. He will, in the coming days, be adulated with words of praise and kindness and he would have been absolutely mortified that so many people thought so highly of him.
The light of Heaven to his kind and gentle soul.
