So sad to hear of the passing of Eamon, may he rest in peace,
It’s been years since we saw each other, but I will never forget your kindness and sincerity, my friend. And, yes, I am still making your bread…
I am deeply saddened at the passing of Eamonn, a friend and bandmate for many years. No doubt he is in heaven for all the good works, fund raising, benefits and anything else to help others he did. God bless and keep Jane and his family.

You will be sadly missed by me and MANY others.
Your quick wit, your generosity and planning/execution of so many fundraisers to benefit others needs, your hand in friendship to everyone you met- I could go on and on. You were certainly a fantastic role model for both young & old – I know I’m a better man as a result of your influence & example. Although sadly missed – You most certainly will never be forgotten. Thanks for being such a great friend.
God Bless. Be sure to save me a seat at the table.
Best damn spoon player I ever heard….Will think of you and your kindness often…Thanks for all the times…
Jane, I am so sorry for your loss! You are in my thoughts and in my prayers.
Jane, I am so sorry for your loss. I am praying for you and your family.
Goodbye my my favourite uncle I will miss so much.
Your passing is a tremendous loss for so many people who loved and admired you. First of course, Jane and your family. Rest easy dear Eamon…you have left a huge emptiness in the hearts of those that love you.
Eamon we are so broken hearted that we have lost you to the Angels singing in heaven. Although we will be away you will be forever in our hearts. Love you Mike and Betsy
This was such sad news to hear. Eamon was always going above and beyond for others. I will remember him for his giant heart and his passion for music. I’m a better person for having known him. Sending love and strength to you, Jane, and all of his loving family.
We were so saddened to hear of eamons passing…we will miss his voice… his humor…. his kindness. We are so grateful we got to hear him sing again last year on st Patrick’s day. We will miss him.
Forever a part of the family. You will be missed.
He was my wonderful friend. I hate that he is no longer with us, but know he is hanging out with my Mike at a wonderful Irish pub inside the golden gates. I love you Jane, Ann, and Eamon JJr.

Sad to hear of Eamonn passing,
May he Rest in Peace….☘️☘️☘️
You will be missed by so many, and forgotten by so few.
I was very sad to hear of Eamon’s passing. He was truly an :”original” . He was a legendary member of the Wild Geese. He was a truly good man-
with a big heart ; a friend to the community, and all who met him and enjoyed his personality and his music. He will be missed.

A kindred spirit and True friend
A man with a beautiful Soul and Heart ❤️
I’ll miss you bud☘️☘️☘️ Keep tabs on us here and watch out for us
I was honored to listen to his singing voice many times at Caverly’s. He was a wonderful fixture there that will be sadly missed. Now singing in Heaven for others to here.
My deepest condolences to you Jane and to your family. Eamon was a
kind and generous man. His work for charitable causes is legendary in the
local Irish community. He loved life and faced it’s difficulties with courage
and great humor. His ability to express human emotion through the lyric of
song was unsurpassed, in my experience. He was always willing to meet
new people and shared his good humor and loving spirit openly, with
everyone. His presence will be missed within our community and the
brotherhood he nobly represented.
Rest in peace, Brother Eamon, YITB, Russ Conlon

Dear Jane and all of Eamon’s family. We are so sorry to hear about the loss of Eamon, He is a kind and generous brother and friend and a talented musician. We have enjoyed Eamon’s company and music since first meeting him at Annie’s original “Fidler’s Green” many years ago, and he will be sorely missed. May he rest in peace with his loved ones and Willie McBride. Eamon and you folks are in our prayers. PS So sorry that we cannot be there for his services as we are out of State; Our loss.
So sad to hear of the passing of Eammon- just a fan of the Wild Geese who loved to hear the music, the wit and the energy of their sound. A loss to lovers of Irish music and culture.
Maeve and myself have been walking around like zombies since we heard the sad news. Eamon, you were my friend for 20 years and we played and sang together for most of that time. We sure had more fun than any human has a right to. Your name is synonymous with charity and generosity, You were always a giver and never a taker. A man you don’t meet every day! Our hearts are shattered and our thoughts are with Jane and all of your wonderful family. God Bless my friend.
My profound condolences to Jane on the passing of her husband.
I have no words, I’m feeling loss of a long time friend. Loss of what to do to make it all better. Living a life being the best human giving and helping those close to us without being asked and just enjoying our precious lives.
God bless you Eamon . GOD BLESS his wonderful family.
I am so sorry to hear the news about Eamon. The Wild Geese were always so fun when they came to Syracuse to play at Kitty Hoynes. Rest In Peace Eamon and my sincere condolences to Jane and the rest of your family☘️
Deepest condolences from your extended Coast Guard family. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire McCormack family.
Jane-I am so sorry to hear of Eamon’s death. I only just learned of it and am devastated for you. Please feel the hugs from an old friend….
Jane – I too just heard of Eamon’s passing. I am so sorry for you and your families. He was the major event in my live that introduced me to my heritage and of course the music. Oh! The music.
