Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam. Heart breaking stuff.

[Harold Disgracey]

A nice tribute from Mickey Moran.



One of the nicest youngsters and exceptional footballers Ive ever worked with. Your smile said it all in both good and bad times. Your drive, enthusiasm, commitment, determination, loyalty and skill never waned because of your burning love of all things GAA. Philly you are the HEART of our team. You will be missed but not forgotten as your unbreakable SPIRIT lives on in us. I know you are smiling down on your beloved Mohill, your lovely Leitrim and everyone who loved you for being the lovely person you were and the perfect role model for every young aspiring footballer. In your short life you touched many people, enriched their lives and achieved so much. To the beautiful lad who was always cheerful, always singing, never complaining, thoughful, gentle and kind such a legacy you leave behind. I like many feel blessed to have shared time with you. There may now be a space at Home, a space at Work, a space in the Changing Room, a space in the Team but never a space in our Hearts for you.

MICKEY MORAN, Leitrim

The online book of condolence had messages from all over the country including from people like Mickey Harte and Joe Kernan. I think that is what the GAA is all about.

Spent hours going through book......

- words you need too use above are: World not "country" and This is not "I think".   
Show me a continent this has not reached.............

Heartbreaking comments, some very very personal, puts all our problems in perspective.  It's hard but it'll do you good to read the book.

[Stall the Bailer]

Sorry to hear about this.
RIP.
