There is widespread sadness following the death of former Roscommon GAA County Board chairperson and former CBS Roscommon principal Michael Fahey.
Mr Fahey, of Kilteevan and formerly of Roscommon Town, died peacefully on Thursday, September 17th, in the care of the staff at Roscommon University Hospital.
A highly respected figure in education and the GAA community, he will be fondly remembered by former teaching colleagues, past pupils and his many friends throughout Roscommon and beyond.
He is deeply mourned by his wife Eileen; daughter Bríana and her partner Rossa; grandchildren Aurelia and Lonn; brothers Noel, Gerry and Ollie; sister Maura; his extended family, neighbours and friends.
Michael will repose at Smyth’s Funeral Home, Roscommon, on Friday from 4 pm until 6 pm, followed by removal to the Sacred Heart Church, Roscommon.
His Mass of the Resurrection will take place on Saturday at 11 am, followed by burial in Kilteevan Cemetery.
The funeral Mass will be broadcast live at churchtv.ie/roscommontown.
