OBITUARY

The death occurred recently of John Joe Fitzgerald, Aughacasla, Castlegregory. Joe passed away peacefully on 20^th October in The Ashborough Lodge Nursing Home, Milltown where he was lovingly cared for over the past 18 months. He celebrated his 90^th birthday only 2 weeks previously on 10^th. October. A kind neighbour and gentle person, Joe was also well known to all of us parents and children attending Aughacasla School some years back as the friendly and caring busdriver. He never raised his voice to anybody and all the children loved him. He had a great way with them and news of his passing was met with sadness at home and in faraway places too where many of the pupils of Aughacasla who travelled in the school bus now have made their homes.
