Patrick McCarroll died in Cork in 1978, Raymond Maher in Waterford in 1980 and Bertrand Farrell in Dublin in 1997.
All three men were characters, each in his own individual manner.
Pat McCarroll was killed while driving his Honda 50 in Fermoy heading back to the priory in Pope's Quay in Cork city. There was torrential rain on the evening the accident happened.
Pat, who was from Northern Ireland, was by trade an engineer and before joining the Dominicans had acquired his pilot's licence.
He spent many years teaching theology in Tallaght before being exiled to Cork.
In his years in Pope's Quay he gave all his energy, time, skill and kindness to the weak and poor.
He was a great man who was extremely kind.
