<p>Seamus Heaney the Great</p> <p>Seamus Heaney was such an amazing character, and even now, almost three years after his death, we still think about him in our prayers, our dreams and in our everyday English lives with Mrs Mulholland. </p> <p>His poetry was one of a kind, and we miss him dearly...</p> <p>Love Ben Sullivan</p>

Had the honor of meeting him in Pittsburgh. Have the privilege of his work for as long as I live. He is missed worldwide. Condolences to his family for whom his loss must surely still be felt. --Jeff O'Brien

<p>A True Heart</p> <p>As an American graduate student I attended a dinner at Emory University in March 2013 for the purpose of hearing Mr. Heaney. We were delighted to have the chance to meet him beforehand and he could not have been more gracious to us. He was warm and friendly, though many waited for a word with him. In speaking of his hosts at Emory that evening he said: "this is what a true heart gives us: a sense of assurance, goodness, and capacity." He gave me all three.</p>
