Dunc the Spunk.
It is so sad to hear the news of your passing. What a beautiful service and lovely words and stories shared about you today. You will be greatly missed by your Rathkeale and St Matts friends. Everyone has such fond memories with you. Your cheeky laugh, mischievous gags, and quick wit. It's no surprises the photos that I have of you are either pulling faces, pulling the fingers or with a pin stuck in your elbow -> CLASSIC. Rest in peace Duncan <3

I remember Duncan at Rathkeale College when he was a boarder. I was the matron in the boarding house. Lovely boy and so sad to hear his life has ended so young.
