The wife of Anthony Joyce has today released the following tribute:
“All the memories we’ve had together – I’ve a pain in my heart that won’t go away. I want you to watch over me and Mary Kate. But I can’t accept that you’ve gone. I keep expecting you to open the door and say, ‘What’s wrong my Margaret?’. I don’t have words to express the pain I have in my heart. I will never forget you. Anthony was loud and merry, but he was harmless; he never held grudges. He had a good heart and is going to be missed by family and friends in England and Ireland.”
