An incorrect depiction

I refer to your article last month (December 18), about my late uncle, Michael Sheehan, which was written in consultation with Tony Lowes.

Lowes is quoted as saying that Sheehan was reticent about his early life. This is rubbish. He never stopped talking about his life, early and late, if anyone was prepared to listen.

Lowes suggests that Sheehan had a ‘run-in’ with the drink. This likewise is rubbish.
