In memory of

Jim Kehoe

June 25, 1971 -  May 29, 2025

James “Jim” Kehoe

With broken hearts and deep love, we announce the passing of James “Jim” Kehoe, who left us far too soon on May 29, 2025, at the age of 53.

Jim was a proud Irishman, full of life and heart. He was the beloved husband of Naomi and the adoring dad of his four beautiful daughters: Jade, Jaylene, Jordanna, and Meadhbh. His girls were his pride and joy, and there was nothing he loved more than being with his family.

Born on June 25, 1971, in Carlow, Ireland. Jim was predeceased by his father Podge and his brother Tom. He is survived by his loving mother Anne and his siblings Paddy, Helen, John, Vinny, Des, Mick, and Annemarie. He also leaves behind a wide circle of nieces, nephews, in-laws, extended family, and countless friends who all felt like family to him.

Jim was known for his quick wit, his big heart, and his love of life. He had a way of lighting up every room, and every pub. One of his favourite places to be was down at his local with a can of Cider in hand, watching the match and having the banter with the lads. Whether it was Gaelic football, rugby, or Tottenham Hotspurs, he was in his element just enjoying the game and the company.

Above all, Jim lived for his family. Naomi and the girls were the centre of his world, and he never let a day go by without showing how much he loved them.

In the words of his favourite musician, Bob Marley—words Jim truly lived by:
“Don’t worry about a thing, ’cause every little thing is gonna be alright.”
