THERE is sadness in the Limerick artistic community following the passing of Tommy O’Grady, the brother of leading poet Desmond.
Although he wasn’t a published author like his sibling, Tommy, who died earlier this month, was remembered as a huge supporter of Limerick’s arts and cultural and life.
Limerick-born writer John Liddy, a friend of Tommy s for over three decades said: “We got on over the years and became very friendly. Apart from being the brother of the poet Desmond, I used to go out and visit him at his farm, and the piggery he ran. It was one of the biggest in Munster, at Ballinagarde, Ballyneety.”
