Love billa! Happy days when he done panto, I was privileged to be practically reared in the Pitt of the opera house with the orchestra watching this man, a true legend xx
Rest easy Billa. I'm sure the staff in Marymount treated you like the Cork royalty you were and you had a peaceful send-off. They don't make 'em like you anymore
He was in the pantos in Cork Opera House. We went there every Christmas. He worked for Beamish. You might be thinking of Christie Ring (famous hurler). 😊
Billa was truly a Cork treasure. He lived and breathed his City. Sad news this morning as he has passed away. Rest in peace Billa 🌹
RIP Billa , you were pure Cork Boi ..
I was whistling the Boys of Fair Hill as I crossed the Banks this evening after two Murphys, I'm sorry twasnt Beamish. Up the Rebels. RIP.

@@viva2pk Thanks for reply ...but no ...this fellow was a hurler referred to as "Billa"
