FRANK O' CONNELL RIP

November 7, 2018

We extend the sympathy of St. Patricks GAA Club to the wife and family of the late Frank O’Connell Lismoynan who died recently following a short illness. Before emigration stole him from us Frank played under age with St. Patricks and continued his GAA career in Manchester. On returning to Lismoynan Frank took a deep interest in St. Patricks and Tipperary hurling teams and attended games near and far. During this time Frankie’s son Richard was a regular member of St. Patricks under 16 and minor teams. Frankie’s older brother Jimmy was a member of the St. Patricks team which won us our first South Tipperary Junior hurling title in 1963 while Mick was also a member of that panel.
