HE has saved ships from disaster and helped rescue countless souls at sea.
And today Patsy Canning hangs up his hat on his final day at Malin Head Coast Guard station.
Patsy has worked through hurricane storm winds, Christmas Days and even on his birthday to help keep people safe not just around Ireland but way out into the Atlantic Ocean.
“We’d like to wish Patsy all the very best on his retirement and thank him for his many years of dedicated service,” said a Coast Guard spokesman in Dublin.
Coast Guard crews from Galway, Mayo, Sligo, Donegal and from the North have sent him their good wishes.
Enjoy life without those night shifts Patsy!
