I met Eoin at Newman Haus next to the University of Munich in 1965. We had some enjoyable times together and I liked and admired him. Condolences to his family. Steve Kirk

Most sincere condolences to Eva and family on the passing of Eoin. A most kind and inspiring teacher. I attended his very first lecture in UCG in 1976 or so. Sadly I'm abroad and will not be able to attend. Kindest thoughts,​Sarah O'Beirne.
