Statement by Taoiseach Enda Kenny on the death of Gertrude Mallon

It is with regret that I learned of the passing of Gertrude Mallon.

I visited Gertrude and Seamus in their home last year in Markethill and saw first-hand the love and devotion they had for each other.

Gertrude had been ill for some time and, along with her carers, Seamus demonstrated the commitment towards her in his personal life that was a central tenet of his public, political life.
