Derrylaughan Kevin Barry's is deeply saddened by the death of Pat O Neill (Terry’s) a former player with our club Pat played at midfield on our first Senior Championship WinningTeam in 1967 he was an excellent fielder of a ball and was a vital cog in the winning of the O Neill Cup. Pat also captained the Tyrone Junior Team to win the All Ireland Title in 1968. A very modest and quiet individual who will be sadly missed by his sister Una. Deepest Sympathy is extended to her and the wider family circle. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam.
