MÁIRÉAD FERNANE: There was real sadness throughout the Club and the local community when news broke on this Saturday morning (15th July) of the death of Máiréad Fernane. Máiréad and her family were steeped in Rock tradition. She herself was Vice Chair of the Club (2017-2018) during the Centenary Celebrations and took over the Chair for the 2019 season. Her Uncle, Dan O’Sullivan, was the founding Chairman of the Club in 1917 and served in that capacity for three seasons (1917-1919). Her father Garry (1915-1994) was the Club’s Juvenile President for many years and her brother Gary, who died at the young of 44 in 1985 had a Juvenile Cup named in his honour. We extend sincere sympathy to Máiréad’s husband (Tim Guiheen), her children Francisse & Ray and to all her extended family and friends. Funeral details: Reposing at the Gleasure Funeral Home, Tralee on Monday (17th July) from 6 to 8 pm. Funeral arriving to Our Lady & St. Brendan’s Church, Tralee on Tuesday morning at 10.30 am where the Requiem Mass for Máiread will be celebrated at 11 am. Interment afterwards in St. John’s Cemetery, Oakview, Tralee. May she Rest In Peace.
