We can never adequately express our heartfelt thanks to Sean's personal friend and Co. Founder of The Boyle Ladies G.A.A. football Club; Fr.

The family will be forever grateful to Dr. Bernard Maguire for his tremendous attention to Sean at all times during his illness and his immediate response to our request for help at the time of his death. Thank you to Malachy Beirne, Undertaker for his efficiency and help. Thank you to all the guards of honour from the various sporting clubs and the Boyle Garda under the supervision of Supt. Tom Cummins for their very efficient handling of the car parking Etc. at this time. We know that Sean derived a huge amount of support and encouragement from what he would consider "His own" Ladies Football Team and Committee and we want to especially thank them and their parents for Masses, get well cards and support at all Times during his illness and since. Sincere thanks also to The Boyle Folk Group and The Abbey College Group, directed by Liz Brennan for their music and song all through the removal and funeral Mass.
