A long life dedicated to Irish causes

As many gathered today to bid farewell to Clare native and lifetime Hibernian John Egan, who died last weekend in a road accident in Greene County, New York, this photo shows John, (far right front) at a time of his life when he dedicated much of his time and energy to the causes and concerns of Irish America. Pictured (l-r) are Dan Dennehy Sr., Congressman Mario Biaggi, former Irish government minister Neil Blaney, Congressman Hamilton Fish, John Egan and, rear right, Willie Joe Cunningham.
