Date: Sun 12th Aug, 2018 | 15:39

“I have learned with sadness of the passing of Tom Moran, a leader of the Irish community in America who will be greatly missed.

In 2015, I presented Tom with a Presidential Distinguished Service Award, in recognition of his work for Ireland, on this island and in the US, supporting peace, but also supporting education and opportunity.  

Sabina and I would like to extend our deepest sympathies to his wife Joan, family and friends at this time.”
