The Day Mr Bojangles Died in Crumlin CRUMLIN, Ireland -- I watched as 120 people gathered in the Newlands Cross Cemetery to bury Jimmy Maher. He was the Mr Bojangles for hundreds of admirers in the local area, including those in the Garda Siochana band. I will be away today, reflecting on the way his music inspired joy into the lives of hundreds who heard him play.
