With a permanent grin etched on his face, a bottle nose, and blind in one eye, Jack was a familiar sight to the residents of Dublin.

His presence on the streets was a reminder of the interconnectedness of its people, as they shared their resources and offered kindness to those in need. Despite the challenges he faced, Jack's spirit remained unbroken. He was known to be a shrewd and resourceful man, who used his charm and charisma to turn begging into an art form.
