TL;DR Summary

President Joe Biden's last day in Ireland was filled with emotional moments, including an unexpected encounter with the Catholic priest who gave the last rites to his late son, Beau. Biden also visited a hospice with a plaque dedicated to Beau and spoke about his son during his address to Ireland's parliament. Despite the emotional moments, Biden also enjoyed a party atmosphere in Ballina, the hometown of his great-great-great grandfather, where he received adoring crowds and even a brick from the Blewitt family homestead. While Biden has expressed his intention to run for re-election, he has also noted that he is a "respecter of fate."
