A book of condolence for Superquinn founder and former An Post Chairman Feargal Quinn has been opened in the GPO.
Mr Quinn's family announced yesterday that he had passed away on Wednesday following a short illness.
An Post will have the book of condolence open today, Friday, and throughout Saturday.
Tributes came from far and wide after Mr Quinn's passing.
Many of Dublin Live's readers had kind words to say about his time as the boss of Superquinn.
Gerard Bolton said: "I worked in superquinn in swords for 20 years and he was a fantastic boss to work for. He was so good to all customers and his staff. Also he was a gentleman."
Susan Lambert added: "Great man with customers and staff alike . Great memories of him in Finglas store in 80s. Don’t make them like him anymore. Gentleman to the core. RIP Feargal."
While Gary Ó'Nualláin said: "Once in the Lucan Superquinn, they were giving out free doughnuts in store. Me and my little sister got one. They were pink frosted ring doughnuts. My older sister is disabled and very fussy with what she eats.
Superquinn founder and former Senator Feargal Quinn dies aged 82
"He came over to us and said are you enjoying them? And we said yes, and he asked my older sister if she got one. She said no, and he said why? She told him that she didn't like doughnuts.
"So he asked her what she did like, and after thinking about it she said chocolate muffins. So he told us to wait there, and he legged it off to the bakery counter himself and came back with a chocolate muffin for her no charge. A great man."
Mr Quinn, who was also a Senator from 1993 to 2016, will be laid to rest on Saturday in Sutton after reposing at Stafford's funeral home in Portmarnock this evening.
His notice on RIP.ie reads: "Beloved husband of Denise and brother to Eilagh; sadly missed by his daughters Gilliane and Zoë, sons Eamonn, Stephen and Donal, daughters and sons-in-law Lorraine, Nicolas, Noelle, Patrick and Leah, grandchildren Emilie, Lucy, Charlie, Alexandra, Frédéric, Ashlinn, Orla, Holly, Kirsten, Feargal, Nicole, Síadan, Zé, Silke, Søren, Juliette, Jessica, Hugo and Senan."
