Iain passed away peacefully, fortified by the Rites of the Holy Catholic Church on Friday, 25 March, 2022, aged 80 years, a devoted husband, soulmate and greatest friend to his wife Cheryl, respected and loved father to his sons Niall and Tadhg, and Poppa Beardie to his grandchildren of whom he was so proud. He will be greatly missed by his sister and brothers in Eire, his in-laws, nieces and nephews and by all who knew him.
A true gentleman to the end, full of Irish humour and wit.
