‘I literally loved every day of the job’
After 14 years in the job, President Mary McAleese yesterday bid farewell and the thought occurred that the normally punctual Uachtaráin wanted to slow time down to enjoy the moments and memories.
The President was due at the Depaul Back Lane Hostel for Homeless Men in Dublin’s Christchurch for her last official engagement at 10.45am, but the bells had peeled 11 times when her car pulled up outside.
