However the question is, is Eamon de Valera an Irish Hero, and the Answer is Yes, yes he is

While Michael Collins accepted the boundaries of the Irish Free State de Valera did not because he believed that all of Ireland, including the North, should be free of British rule. Eamon de Valera believed that if they continued fighting, they would succeed freeing all of Ireland.
