Brian GAYNOR Obituary

Fond memories of Brian coaching a group of young boys that shared a passion for cricket
Bian had the ability with his quiet way of bringing ut the best in the boys

My sincere sympathy to Anna, Peter, Dermot, Mary and all the Gaynors on the heartbreaking loss of their beloved Brian.
Thinking of you all at this very difficult time.
May Brian Rest in Peace.

We offer our sympathies to Anna and Peter and to Dermot and Mary on Brian's sad loss. We have fond memories of meeting him some time ago.

You and Brian were kind to me in a difficult time in my life. One day at a time has worked for me in times of personal loss. Brian´s sense of humour is how I recall him.

To Anna and Peter my sincere sympathies to you and Brian's family and all who are mourning his loss.

I last met him at the Crescent College reunion prior to covid, and had the pleasure of enjoying his company during that brief time.

As a classmate, I have pleasant memories of Brian's humour both in the classroom (as he challenged teachers and fellow students alike) and beyond, His excellence and prowess on the rugby field are remarkable as he captained the squad to victory.

Finally, I am happy to be able to be part of the online congregation at his memorial service tomorrow, to wish Brian farewell!
JOHN

My sincere condolences for your loss. Brian will be remembered as a true gentleman and champion...I'll remember his warmth and support when I first arrived in New Zealand. God Bless.

It is with sadness we learn of your brother Brian´s death . We did not have the good fortune of knowing him
But from what we have read he seemed like quite a guy . Our sincere sympathies to Brenda Dermot and extended family .

Condolences & sadness at Brian's passing from Dave Fleming (Brian's 1 cousin) in Dublin, Ireland.
Anna & Peter, sorry we can't be with you at this sad time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you from all the Flemings.

Valerie and I are saddened to hear of Brian's sudden passing.
Having schooled together from 1953 to 1966, played rugby together and golfed when he visited Limerick, I have now lost another important friend far too soon.
Anna, we are devastated for you on your loss. How proud all his classmates and friends were for the enormous success he achieved in his lifetime.
Gone far too soon Brian RIP
