Thanks to the musicians, singers, readers, eucharistic ministers, Deacon Francis, stewards, Sonny for erecting the canopy, cemetery committees, John McElligott for the sound system and Dan and Maureen for setting things up. Thanks to Fergal Roche and family for opening their field to the community, especially this year when grass is scarce and to the Hayes family in Kilflynn. The amount collected in Abbeydorney was €1,490. Thank you for your generosity, the money will be put to good use in the cemetery.
