There was sad news with the passing of Castlewellan life member and former player Cahal Keown on Sunday morning. Cahal played his football with the Town for many years and gave great service to the club.

His quiet demeanour off the pitch was in contrast to his attitude in the game where the scribe of this column and others Were always glad he was there backing us up. He will be sadly missed. The executive committee and members express their deepest sympathy to his wife Roisin, son Gareth and daughter Deborah, all of whom are life members of the club.

Castlewellan GAC also extend sympathy to Cabal's brothers Danny and Michael, who are also life members of the club, and to the wide family circle on their sad loss. Ar dheis de go raibh a anam dilis.
