    Billa was truly a Cork treasure. He lived and breathed his City. Sad news this morning as he has passed away. Rest in peace Billa 🌹

    Rest easy Billa. I'm sure the staff in Marymount treated you like the Cork royalty you were and you had a peaceful send-off. They don't make 'em like you anymore

      He was in the pantos in Cork Opera House. We went there every Christmas. He worked for Beamish. You might be thinking of Christie Ring (famous hurler). 😊
