Brian Collum 

This week we especially remember Brian Collum whose 10th anniversary was on Monday. Brian was an immensely talented footballer, for club and county, as well as an exceptional musician. Most importantly he was a young gentleman who was respected and admired by all who had the privilege to know him. Brian’s anniversary Mass is next Friday at 8pm in St Mary’s Church, Drumlish. Remembered always by your teammates at Fr Manning Gaels. Leaba i measc na naomh go raibh aige.
