Condolences
It is with great sadness that we report the passing of promising underage hurler Eoin Fagan (son of former Pollard Star Eugene), who died on Saturday morning last in Crumlin Hospital, after a brief illness. The community and surrounding area are numb and in shock following his sudden death at such a young age. Eoin has left behind him a well of grief for his friends, family and neighbours. To his heartbroken parents Maggie and Eugene, brothers Ciaran, Charles and Shane, Grandmother Anne, Uncles, Aunts and all his many relatives and friends the Hurling Club offers its deepest sympathy. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dilis. Full tribute to follow at a later date.
Eoin's Funeral takes place on Wednesday 16th April to St. Michael's Church, Castlepollard at 12 noon with Burial afterwards to adjoining cemetery.
