Books of condolence for the late Anthony Foley
T
TRIBUTES have been flowing for Munster and Ireland rugby legend Anthony Foley who died suddenly in Paris at the weekend. Books of condolence have opened across Kerry and Munster. A book of condolence for the late Anthony Foley was opened by Kerry County Council on Monday, with all seven local authorities doing so. The book is available for signing by members of the public at the reception of County Buildings in Rathass for the coming days during office hours.
The Cathaoirleach of Kerry County Council, Cllr Michael O'Shea, signed the book on Monday and a book of condolence has also been opened at Killarney Municipal District Offices (Killarney Town Hall).
A French coroner said yesterday that the 42-year-old died due to a heart condition which led to a build-up of fluid in his lungs.
Anthony’s remains will be brought to his family home (private) in Killaloe, Co Clare, today. They will lie in repose at St Flannan’s Church, Killaloe, from 1pm to 8.30pm sharp tomorrow, Thursday evening. People intending on paying their respects to Anthony are asked to attend early. House afterwards is private.
The funeral Mass will take place at 12 midday on Friday at St Flannan’s Church, with the church ceremony reserved for family and friends only.
The burial afterwards will be at Reilig Núa Cemetery, Killaloe. Family flowers only.
