We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Irish show band legend, Paddy Cole (85), a lifelong ambassador and cherished friend for Make-A-Wish Ireland. Paddy’s unwavering passion and dedication for the children we support was truly inspiring.
In 2018 he set up the Paddy Cole fund-raising golf classic with a group of close friends, the event is now a much-anticipated annual event which has gone from strength to strength each year, under Paddy’s guidance.
Whether it was promoting Make-A-Wish on his show on Sunshine FM or fundraising to support the organisation, Paddy was always there—just a phone call away—ready to lend a hand and make a difference.
We extend our heartfelt sympathies to Paddy’s beloved wife, Helen, his three children, and his many friends and loved ones.
Rest in peace, Paddy. Your kindness and generosity will never be forgotten.
Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.💙
