The Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland, Archbishop Eamon Martin, said, I offer “my sympathies to the family and friends of Dr Éamon Phoenix RIP – a most gifted historian, author and broadcaster – a very kind person and engaging communicator, whose 2021 webinar series for the Bishops’ Conference on Partition was especially memorable.
