Sympathy is extended to the family of Noeleen Finnegan, Mile Hill Road, to her husband, Finbar, Aoife, Fergal, Fintan & Paddy, their families & the extended O’Neill & Finnegan families. Noeleen wore her heart on her sleeve & was extremely proud of her boys playing with the club. She was fiercely loyal to & a great friend of the club. She will be sorely missed by all who knew her. Suaimhneas sioraí di. Rest easy Noeleen.
