Sympathy
On behalf of all in the club we send our deepest sympathies to the
Houlihan family and all in Dungarvan GAA Club on the tragic death of David
Houlihan last week. Whilst David was of course a proud member of Dungarvan GAA
Club he had many friends in Abbeyside and the news of his untimely death
shocked and saddened everyone when they heard it last Wednesday. David had an
infectious personality which meant that he endeared himself to anyone who ever
met him and had played against us only a few short weeks ago in Intermediate
Football. The fantastic response to the fundraising activity to help with
returning David home is testament if any were needed to the high regard David
was held in by all who knew him. Indeed it is often said that only the good die
young and this is certainly true of David. He will be deeply missed by all his
good friends in Abbeyside / Ballinacourty GAA Club and we once again send our
sympathies to all the Houlihan Family and the members of Dungarvan GAA Club.
