The community of Castletown Geoghegan ground to a standstill last weekend in tribute to local resident Pauric Kirby, who passed away following a workplace accident in Mullingar last Wednesday, 4 October.
“Never before in this community has there been such a large expression of grief,” said parish priest Fr Barry Condron, welcoming those to Mr Kirby’s funeral Mass at St. Michael’s Church on Sunday. “People have been coming out in their thousands.”
