I knew Mickey for over 6 years and everything said about him so far is spot on; his warm smile and friendly demeanour was an inspiration to everyone. Mickey's CRM and security training courses were always a pleasure to attend as he had the ability to hold everyone's attention.

Mickey will be very sadly missed by all of his friends and colleagues.

Thoughts are with Oliver, Luke and partner Anna.

RIP Mickey

Very sad to hear of the loss of Mickey, great to work with at DHL.

Thoughts go out to his family especially Luke as we all know him well.

From all the former DHL lot down under at Virgin Blue.

[Far Call]

I'm still shocked at the news. Knew you since your first day at BMA. A real character with tons of charm, you never changed.

You'll not be forgotten, and always thought of with fondness, so not a bad legacy, in my book.

Rest in Peace Mickey.

Will be sadly missed

Rest in peace

Have opened this to find Mickey RIP, can you tell me what happened I have known and worked with Mickey for years I cant believe this news.
Thank you

[Westcharlatan]

Quinn, Mickey passed away last Tuesday in Dublin.Don't know cause of death yet.His body will be flown home this week to a post mortem.He came over for a few beers on the 8th and he had hurt his back after falling downstairs on the Fri i think. We watched the England game on the Sat and had a few beers and his back seemed to be a lot better,we even agreed to a round of golf when he returned from Dub.
He was such a great mate to me and Sara,and we spent many a night putting the world to right.He hardly said a bad word about anyone but lifted us all up with his humour.We still expect him to turn up saying it was all a joke.The world would be a better place if there were more people like him.

[SHIFTY]

Had the good fortune to know Mickey during my time with DHL- top bloke, always smiling and always very helpful.

A real shock and a loss to all who knew him.

RIP Mickey

I've only recently heard the news. I'm very saddened - Mickey was a top guy, a genuine motivator. As someone else said the world would be a better place with more like him. Only the good die young, eh? God bless from an ex Hunting/ACL mate.

[OldChinaHand]

I learn of Mickeys untimely departure from this life with deep sadness, I have not seen him for many years, but still remember the happy and professional way he went about his Job at HCA/ACL. Mickey, you were one of the good guys, God bless and Rest In Peace.

OCH.

[Beavis and Butthead]

Really saddened to have stumbled across this news today. Have many happy memories working with Mickey back in the 90's, and he never failed to make everyone smile. A true legend.

RIP Mickey.

[JazzyKex]

I too am deeply saddened to hear of Mickey's passing. He was a true gentleman a fabulous instructor, a man with nothing but kind words and positive thoughts towards his colleagues, and a smile that seemed permanently etched on his face.

My thoughts are with all the close friends and family he leaves, I hope that the fact he touched so many people in such a positive way gives you some solace in what must be a time of deep sadness.

Rest in peace Mickey.
