Only Waterford has rents below €1,000

WATERFORD has emerged as the only city with average rent lower than €1,000 per month. The stark fact comes as national rents grew by 7% year-on-year in Q2 of 2021 – the highest growth since a rate of 7.4% in Q1 2019. However, comparisons with rent rises nationally may be misleading, since rents in Waterford City have still increased in Q2 2021 compared with Q2 2020, with rent levels increasing by 9% and 8.7% year-on-year, respectively. The level of increase prompted the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB), which has published the latest report, to describe the picture as a “source of concern”. Nationally, the average monthly rent now stands at €1,352. It is the largest increase in rent prices since Q1 2019. The average rent in Waterford is €969. The housing minister has now instructed the RTB to crack down on “rogue landlords” following the increases. Darragh O’Brien told the watchdog to “aggressively identify and pursue non-

compliance with rent-setting responsibilities”. Mr O’Brien said he was committed to ensuring full protection for tenants, particularly as the rises may indicate non-compliance by landlords with rent setting regulations, which are designed to restrict rent increases in Rent Pressure Zone areas (RPZ). He warned not adhering to RPZ legislation was a serious offence. “They are an essential pillar of rental policy and the impact of not complying with these measures can have severe knock-on effects – it is essential that people understand that nonadherence to RPZ legislation is a serious offence. “In this context, I have called upon the RTB to ensure that their full powers and resources are brought to bear in initiating and executing a robust and thorough campaign to identify noncompliance and breaches in RPZ rent increase restrictions and related procedures, including those related to rent reviews and notification of exemptions from the restrictions,” he said.

news in brief 60% plan to get flu jab this winter ALMOST 60% of people in Waterford plan on getting the flu vaccine this year, according to new research by Lloyds Pharmacy. This compares with just 43% last year. With incidence of COVID-19 still high in Ireland there is a possibility of cocirculation of flu and COVID-19 this winter, therefore the flu vaccination is crucial to protect those most at risk of serious illness. The research also shows that 70% of adults in Waterford have made changes to their life to help make their health more of a priority.

Mulligan’s to take over Kilmacthomas pharmacy

Waterford revamp A number of road improvements, as well as the regeneration of Waterford’s city centre, are among the projects in the southeast mentioned in the National Development Plan. More than €27m has been earmarked for the Waterford regeneration, which was approved last March, while a number of road improvement schemes have also been given the green light. A new rail station is also part of the plan, as are bus corridors and a “sustainable transport bridge”, to link the north and south quays.

Jeananne, Kate, Garvin, Sheila, Niall and Ronan Mulligan with Jenny Kirwan as the family-run Mulligan’s Pharmacy group take over and are set to continue to offer the only pharmacy service in Kilmacthomas THE family-run Mulligan’s Pharmacy group is to take over the only pharmacy service in Kilmacthomas, as Jenny Kirwan of Kirwan’s Pharmacy retires. Jenny has just stepped down, having run Kirwan’s Pharmacy since 1987. “I am delighted to have Mulligan’s Pharmacy continue the provision of vital pharmacy services to

the area,” she said. “I have considered the future of this business very carefully and I know that the family-run, Mulligan’s Pharmacy group will continue to provide an excellent level of care and service for the people of Kilmacthomas village and the wider region.” The new Mulligan’s Pharmacy is located at the same address on Main Street

and will provide pharmacy counter services along with a click and collect service, while adding further health, beauty, family and wellbeing brands, plus a full range of premium cosmetic and fragrance brands normally found on the high street. The store will continue to open 6 days per week. For more: www. mulliganspharmacy.com

THE historic parts of south Tipperary and west Waterford have officially been linked up, coinciding with the announcement of 31 new trails nationwide. St Declan’s Way, a new 115km walking trail, was opened by Minister for Rural and Community Development, Heather Humphreys, at Mount Melleray Abbey in Co Waterford, marking the culmination of years of work by local communities. She also announced funding for up to eight new rural recreation officers to deliver the Government’s “walk’s scheme” which includes 31 new walking trails in 13 counties. According to the Waterford Leader Partnership, who supported the project along with counterparts in South Tipperary as well as the two councils, the walk could end up being used by 20,000 people every year. The initiative was also backed by Minister Humphreys’s department under the Rural Recreation Fund, with the work co-ordinated by the St Declan’s Way Management Committee.

Old Deise tales grace new GAA grassroots collection

SEVEN stories from County Waterford have been selected to appear in a fascinating new book on the GAA, written by people at the centre of the association nationwide. ‘Grassroots: Stories From The Heart Of The GAA’, is a treasure trove of GAA memories, tales and incidents spanning over 150 years. “The book generated an incredible response from every county in Ireland, as well as from the Irish abroad,” said author and journalist, PJ Cunningham, who collaborated with Croke Park on the publication. “I have included stories not only since the GAA’s foundation in 1884, but from before, through to the Civil War and up to modern times. “The collection is, in essence, the first time that this rich oral tradition of sideline and on-field stories have been put together and published in this form. “It provides snapshots into the history of the GAA, recounted by the people at the heart of the action, whether those stories are happy or sad, dramatic or ordinary.” Volume one has just been published and such was the response from the GAA community that work has already

begun on a second collection. The first edition includes stories from the rich history of Waterford GAA. Killrossanty native James Power freely admits he wasn’t much of a footballer or a hurler, yet he pushed the legendary Christy Ring to the limits whenever they faced up to each other competitively. However, it was during his breaks while working at Roadstone in Kilmacthomas that he encountered the Cloyne great, who worked as an oil salesman in the area. Often when Christy would call James and a friend could be seen playing push penny. Ever the competitor, Ring would ask for a turn – and it led to may close encounters between them. Paddy Phelan’s story is unique in the collection in that it talks about his forebears’ organising games – and a pitch – a quarter of a century before the GAA was born in Hayes’ Hotel in Thurles in 1884. Other contributors include former Irish soccer international Niall Quinn and RTÉ hurling analyst and former Offaly star, Michael Duignan. Grassroots: Stories From The Heart Of The GAA (Volume 1), priced at €19.99, is available now.

New freight service offers ‘green’ routes

A new rail freight service in each direction between Ballina, in Co Mayo and Waterford has come into operation, with weekly operations building to twiceweekly within eight weeks. It will offer a greener and more efficient mode of transporting freight between the west and southeast of the country and will see the potential for over 5,000 truck movements a year to switch from road to rail,

with a resulting reduction in road congestion, and 75% reduction in emissions per unit. The new service comes as Iarnrod Eireann is finalising a new national rail freight strategy to identify growth and investment opportunities to significantly grow rail freight operations. The new rail freight service is in addition to existing rail freight operations to Dublin Port, Westport and Navan.

Taste that! 10 food awards for Waterford

DUBBED the Oscars of Irish food, Blas na hEireann are the largest food awards on the island, open to all 32 counties. The judging took place in Dingle during July this year and finalists were notified in August. The final award winners have now been announced — with a total of 10 winners from Waterford. The awards are like no other, in that products entered are blindtasted — meaning all packaging and identifying features are removed before being presented for judging, creating a level playing field for products from both large and small producers. Now in their 14th year, the Blas na hÉireann awards are the allisland food awards that recognise the very best Irish food and drink products, and the passionate people behind them. The biggest blind tasting of produce in the country, the criteria on which the product is judged as well as the judging system itself, which was developed by Blas na hÉireann with the Food

Science Dept of UCC and the University of Copenhagen, is now recognised as an industry gold standard worldwide. Judges come from a range of food backgrounds, from chefs to restaurateurs, academics, journalists, authors, food champions, caterers and enthusiastic home cooks. Chairperson Artie Clifford feels that now, more than ever, it is essential to shine a light on and give that all important boost to the talented producers dotted around the island. “These are the 14th annual Blas na hÉireann awards,” Artie said, “and despite the very challenging situation, I am delighted to report a record entry level from producers right across the island. “This large increase in entries has raised the bar across all categories, allowing us to introduce new products and producers to the buyers and press with whom we work, which is really exciting. “Congratulations to all the winners and to every producer

who participated. It is always such a rewarding experience to see the wealth of exceptional foods being produced on the island of Ireland, and this has been the best year yet.” Products from every county in Ireland were entered into this year’s competition to win Gold, Silver or Bronze Blas na hÉireann awards in over 150 food and drink categories, as well as key awards like Supreme Champion and Best Artisan Producer. The bronze, silver and gold winners from Waterford, across a range of different categories are: • Barefoot Farm: Chef’s Larder • Faithlegg Hotel: Bronze • Glorious Sushi: Bronze • Irish Gourmet Butter: Silver • Knockanore Cheddar: Gold • Pipin Pear: Gold, Silver & Bronze • Planté: Gold • Viking Irish Drinks: Gold • Walsh’s Bakehouse: Gold & Best in County • Woodstown Bay Shellfish Ltd: Bronze

AFTER a two-year gap, The Haven Hotel, in Dunmore East, is delighted to be hosting another Dinner Dance in aid of The Holy Ghost Residential Home, on Wednesday, 27th October. The Holy Ghost is a charitable organisation that offers care for older persons who do not require full-time nursing home care. All those involved with the home — which has a capacity of 60 — hope to continue enhancing care to senior citizens in Waterford.

The event was the brainchild of Gerry Cullen, former Royal Showband member and resident of the home. “We held this event two years ago and it was a tremendous success. I really want to give something back for the care the team at The Holy Ghost have given me, without which I would not be alive,” Gerry said. The evening will kick off at 6pm with a Prosecco Reception, followed by a three-course meal and then dancing to Brass & Co, with a

‘Mixed results’ for our councils

A report by the independent watchdog of local government, the National Oversight and Audit Commission (NOAC), has examined the performance of Waterford City and County Council in 2020 across 11 areas and found the council delivered mixed results in a range of areas, including housing, the environment and financial management. Some of the key findings in the report include: Housing: Waterford City and County Council owned 5,275 social housing dwellings at end of 2020. Roads: The level of motor tax transactions, which were dealt with online, was 83.32%. Corporate: The percentage of paid working days lost to sickness absence through medically certified leave in 2020 was 3.42%. Finance: The level of rent collection for 2020 was 65.0%. Public health restrictions and the increased challenges along with the reduction in income, impacted performance, NOAC said.

Where are the clowns? There ought to be clowns

WORKED on national newspapers for some 50 years and in all of them, always, there was a simmering hostility between the editorial and finance departments; the journalists thought the accountants had no soul and the accountants thought the journalists had no sense. The folk who held the purse strings never seemed like a load of laughs, so I was surprised to hear that the recently-retired financial controller for several publications had gone to a circus school to learn to be a clown. “Nothing odd about it,” he told me. “I worked with you clowns for years, so I thought I might as well learn to do it properly.” He did his training at Belfast Community Circus School, which is, I believe, the only one

Michael Wolsey

of its kind in Ireland. If you’re looking for an interesting career, and think you can fill some big shoes, you should check out its curriculum, for clowns are in demand. As Covid restrictions lift, circuses are taking to the road again, and they all report a

shortage of clowns. Duffy’s has advertised for ‘hilarious’ people to fill the role, warning that it won’t accept ‘old jokes’. The circus is also looking for mechanics, electricians, HGV drivers (good luck with that one!) and general operatives. So Duffy’s really is back in business and I am glad to hear it. Irish circuses operate on a shoestring at the best of times and their survival through Covid closure seems close to a miracle. They were a lovely part of my childhood and I would hate to see them lost. I don’t remember the circus ever ‘coming to town’ in the Hollywood movie sense, with much fanfare, a parade and a ring master calling ‘roll up, roll up’. But even without that razzmatazz, there was still a real buzz when Duffy’s or Fossett’s pitched their big top in the

park near us. The show was exciting at a time when there was little excitement of that sort; a live performance for kids who had never been inside a theatre. And there was free entertainment to be had, just by mooching around the site. You might see exotic animals, jugglers rehearsing or the clowns putting on their face paint. Clowns have a mixed reputation . Some children are frightened of them and some adults also find them creepy, a condition recognised with its very own name, coulro-

phobia. Stephen King has a lot to answer for. Scary or not, clowns are a vanishing breed, in short supply for some time, and not just in Ireland. Back in 2014 New York’s Daily News reported that membership at the World Clown Association, the Americ a n union for clowns, h a d dropped in a decade from 3,500 to 2,400. The association’s president said it was difficult to persuade younger people to take up clowning as a job. “What happens is they go on

to high school and college and clowning isn’t cool anymore” he said. “Clowning is then put on the back burner until their late 40s and early 50s.” Well, that might explain the late conversion of my retired accountant friend. Clowns never scared me but I must admit I never, ever, thought they were funny, with their baggy pants, broken-down cars, custard pies and buckets of water. Still, they are a part of the circus tradition, so I wish them well and I hope Duffy’s is successful with its recruitment. If all else fails, Tom Duffy could try to lure a few clowns away from Dáil Eireann, where, despite the general shortage, there is a surplus, some with their own funny caps. That would be a bit of a longshot, though. The pay is much better in Leinster House.

Grey Seal pup (Pic: Justin Ivory) It’s that time of year when myself and many other trained Marine Rescue Volunteers with Seal Rescue Ireland are getting constant call outs. Yes we are right in the midst of Grey Seal pupping season, which runs from early August right upto the end of December, and even into January. I have written about this topic before but is worth repeating again given the increase in encounters between humans and seals. Here is the advice from the Seal Rescue Ireland website. What to do if you have found a seal? • Keep at least 100m distance (and preferably out of sight) – disturbance may lead to mothers abandoning pups • Don’t put the seal in the water they are on land for a reason • Don’t touch seals – they are wild animals and will bite • Keep dogs on a leash – they may injure or pass diseases to each other How to tell if a seal needs help? • A healthy seal is plump and barrel shaped. Seals with loose skin rolls, protruding hip bones, ribs and a visible neck may be under-weight and need help. • Seals with swollen limbs, cuts, bites or visible injuries including entanglement in netting, may need help • Healthy seals eyes are wide open with no cloudiness or marks. Wet patches around their eyes shows good hydration. Dry, squinting, cloudy eyes with discharge may indicate illness. • Healthy seals have clear, deep breaths and no wheezing, sneezing or discharge from their nose. Dry coughing, rapid or erratic breathing, discharge or blood from the nose, may indicate illness. If you think a seal needs help… • Call SRI’s 24/7 Rescue Hotline at 0871955393 • Provide your name and number • Send you location pin • Give a detailed description of size and condition of the pup or seal • Send photos and/or videos

We Don’t Know Ourselves Fintan O’Toole

ireland v azerbaijan RTE2, Saturday October 9 (4.15pm)

worth Netflix

Interweaving memoir and historical narrative, Fintan O’Toole, who was born in 1958, covers Ireland’s journey out of domination by the Church and its transformation into the society it is today. The Church fought a long action to defend its entrenched positions in education, healthcare and childcare. The truth about child abuse and institutional cruelty emerged only slowly, and women still had to die to make possible the liberalisation of Irish laws on contraception and divorce. This is a very personal history by a writer who is considered to be one of our leading public intellectuals.

IF we could only scrape a draw against these guys in Landsdowne Road (ok, Aviva then, if you must) what chance have we in foreign lands somewhere between the Caspian Sea and Caucasus Mountains, asked Stephen Kenny as he summoned up a striker from League One side, Wigan. If you’re struggling to comprehend how football in this country has reached such a nadir, then you may as well tune in to witness what could be its final demise. Lose this, and it really has to be curtains for the former Dundalk gaffer . . .

SET in the wake of the 9/11 attacks, Michael Keaton is brilliant as lawyer and mediator Kenneth Feinberg, who is hired to lead the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund. With a strong cast that also includes Stanley Tucci and Amy Ryan, this new Netflix film where Keaton is forced to determine the worth of individual lives is described as “a rewardingly complex dramatisation of real-life events”. It really is an indictment of a system that somehow can quantify human loss and suffering in such a cold and clinical manner.

The Many Saints of Newark Cinemas nationwide

WORLD-renowned immunologist Professor Kate Fitzgerald has been unveiled as one of the speakers at Network Ireland’s Annual Conference and National Businesswoman of the Year awards, which take place at Waterford’s Theatre Royal on October 8th. Professor Fitzgerald, who is from Waterford, has made many important scientific discoveries during her career and was this year inducted into the US National Academy of Sciences in recognition of her achievements. Pictured is President of Network Ireland Aisling O’Neill, who is dedicated to supporting women across enterprise, professions and arts.

30 years or so before ‘The Sopranos’, Dickie Moltisanti (Alessandro Nivola) takes young Tony Soprano (Michael Gandolfini) under his wing as Dickie attempts to navigate the changing landscape of Newark’s criminal underworld. The focus here is on one character — Dickie Moltisanti — but instead of setting it over the course of a particular event, here it tries to run itself out over the course of years and the results, sadly, are mixed given what we already watched over 100-odd episodes on the TV series. Still, if you were a fan, you won’t want to miss it.

Following 2019’s Encore — perhaps struggling to follow it — the ska legends have recorded a bunch of covers instead under the umbrella term of ‘protest songs’, weaving in blues, folk, country and rock. Most of the songs are American oddly enough, and while your definition of a protest song may be different from theirs, renditions of Leonard Cohen’s Everybody Knows and Talking Heads’ Listening Wind, alongside songs by Bob Marley, Frank Zappa, might just be your bag..

THE creative team behind Seven Ages of MAM is made up of Pauline O’Driscoll (performer, producer & co -writer), Mark Evans (co-writer) and Tom Kibbe (director), in a new, heartwarming yet poignant solo in which Mam (Pauline O’Driscoll) shares her hilarious take on motherhood, sexuality, grief, infidelity, ageing, love, lust and loneliness. A female centric piece that will appeal to all. Tickets on sale now, from €18.00.

MARIE Power has been running seaweed workshops and events on wildlife for several years on a voluntary basis. Her professional background is in management and training consultancy but she decided in recent years to follow her interest in nature and now runs workshops on a regular basis, introducing people to seaweed and wild food foraging and cookery.

Waterford to earmarked fo HOT on the heels of Waterford City being named the ‘Best Place To Live’, it was announced this week that €27m is to be made available for the city’s regeneration. A number of road improvements are also among the projects in the southeast mentioned in the National Development Plan. The Waterford regeneration was originally approved last March, while a number of road improvement schemes have also been given the green light. The N24 between Waterford and Limerick, which runs through Carrick-on-Suir, Clonmel, Cahir, Tipperary Town, Pallas Green, and several other towns and villages, has long been a source of grief in the areas involved. It was selected for ‘preappraisal and early planning’ in 2018, particularly the sections from Waterford to Cahir and Cahir to Limerick Junction. This week’s published plan has the N24 improvement as ‘subject

to further approvals’ as well as the N25 enhancement of the road between Waterford city and Glenmore in south Kilkenny, and the N11/N25 between Oylegate and Rosslare in Co Wexford. Another project which was successfully completed in recent years having been part of previous plans, included the new Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Bridge over the river Barrow. Also mentioned was the Dunmore Wing at University Hospital, and the Waterford Greenway, which was developed between 2014 and 2017 at a cost of €21m. The long-awaited development of the North Quays in Waterford city was provided for in the 2018 plan, with funding since allocated to allow for strategic development zone designation and the infrastructure needed to proceed with a major business/ leisure/tourism/residential development on the site. However, the plan hit a snag

o get even better as €27m or city’s regeneration earlier this year when the council lost patience with the private development company involved in the regeneration project, because of contract delays. A new rail station, seen as part of the overall necessary infrastructure for regeneration, is part of the plan, as are bus corridors in Waterford city, the BusConnects scheme and a “sustainable transport bridge”, which would link the north and south quays. Meanwhile, the Technological University for the South East (TUSE), which is now due to formally come into being at the start of 2022, is again referred to by the Government. In 2018, ‘new buildings’ in Carlow and Waterford to facilitate a merger of their institutes of technology, and a ‘site in Wexford’ to facilitate an outreach campus as part of the southeast university, were all promised. Last week Waterford was

named ‘The Irish Times Best Places to Live in Ireland 2021’. Judges praised the beauty of the city’s buildings, its liveability, its affordability and its vibrancy, saying: “What Waterford has achieved over the past two decades is simply outstanding.” The city, which was the unanimous choice of the judging panel, beat off stiff competition from the four other shortlisted locations: Clonakilty, Co Cork; Galway city; Glaslough, Co Monaghan; and Killarney Co Kerry. The Irish Times Best Place to Live in Ireland contest, which is supported by Randox Health, began in June. Over the summer, 2,400 people nominated 470 places across all 32 counties for the title. While the number of nominations was a factor in the selection of the top locations — Waterford received 47 — the quality of the place itself was the chief consideration.

In Loving Memory

12th Anniversary JAMES KELLY

1st Anniversary Maurice Flavin

Unseen and unheard but always near, So loved, so missed, so very dear

Birthday remembrance MAURA FRAMPTON In loving memory of James Kelly late of 95 Dominics Place, whose 12th anniversary occurs on the 20th October. Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning’s hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft stars that shine in the night. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there: I did not die. - Sadly missed by your daughter Angela I’d like the memory of me to be a happy one, I’d like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done. I’d like to leave an echo, Whispering softly down the ways of happy times, And laughing times and bright and sunny days, I’d like the tears of those who grieve, To dry before the sun of happy memories, That I leave when life is done. - Sadly missed by daughter Marie, sons Michael, Bernard, John, daughters in law & grandsons. God saw the road was getting tough, The hill too hard to climb, He gently closed your loving eyes, And whispered peace be thine, A golden heart stopped beating, Hard working hands at rest, He broke our hearts to prove, He only takes the best, Your life was love and labour, Your love for your family true, You did your best for all of us, We will always remember you. So keep your hands around him Lord, And give him special care, Make up for all that he suffered, And all that seemed unfair. We have many things to thank you for, We just don’t know where to start, Just to tell you that we love you, From the bottom of our hearts. - Sadly missed, love, your son Paul, daughter in law Sharon & grandaughter Shannon

Mum, A lot in life has altered, A lot in life is new, But the things in life that never alter, Are the memories of you, It isn’t what I write today, It isn’t what I say, It’s how I feel inside, When I think of you today, Parting comes to let us know We love you more dearly than we know, Love in death can make us see, What love in life should really be, No matter how life changes, No matter what I do, There will always be a place Within my heart for you. - Happy Birthday Mam, love always, Shirley, Derek, grandchildren and great grandchildren A smile for all, a heart of gold, One of the best the world could hold, Never selfish, always kind, These are the memories you left behind, To hear your voice, to see you smile, To sit and talk with you a while, To be together in the same old way, Would be our dearest wish to day, Though absent, you are always near, Still loved, still missed, still very dear. - Birthday wishes, love Dessie, Vicky and Joe. When we last saw your smiling face, You looked so bright & well Little did we know that day was to be your last farewell, To us you were someone special, Someone kind and true, You will never be forgotten Mam,

Complete funeral service Funeral Home

For we thought the world of you, Sunshine passes and shadows fall, But love & memories outlast them all. -Missing you always, love Monica, grandchildren and great grandchildren . God looked around his garden, And saw an empty space, He then looked down from Heaven, And saw your tired face, He wrapped his arms around you, And whispered Come to Rest, His garden must be beautiful, Because he only takes the best, Like falling leaves, the years go by, But memories of you will never die, Sunshine passes, shadows fall But memories of you Outlast them all. - Happy Birthday Mam, you are always in my heart. Love Stephanie, Paul, grandchildren and great grandchildren. Softly from the shadows, You heard a gentle call, Taking the hand of Jesus You quietly left us all, No special day is needed For us to think of you, You will never be forgotten For we thought the world of you, There is no night without a dawning, No winter without a spring And beyond deaths dark horizon Our hearts once more will sing, For those who leave us for a while have only gone away, Out of a restless careworn world Into a brighter day. -Sadly missed and loved dearly, Sharon, grandchildren and great grandchildren. If I could visit Heaven On this special day, I would wrap my arms around you, And bring you home to stay, Find the softest pillow Lord To rest her head upon, Place a kiss upon her cheek, She will know who it’s from, I can’t get over losing you Even though I try, I will always keep you in my heart Until the day I die. - Happy Birthday Mam, never forgotten, Love Joanne, Michael, grandchildren and great grandchildren. I’ll never forget that sad day You closed your eyes and went

5th Anniversary Christine Collins away, A sudden call from God on high, I had no chance to say goodbye, The hardest thing in life to bear Is to want you mother And she’s not there, I wish that I could see you Mam Sitting in your chair, I wish that I could go back home And find you waiting there, A million words cannot express My love, my sorrow, my emptiness, No more tomorrows for us to share But yesterdays memories will always be there, No verse can say, no flowers repay The beautiful mother I lost that day. - Happy birthday Mam, love always Frank, Mary, Zoe Amy Lonely is the home without you, Life to us is not the same, All the world would be like Heaven, If we could have you back again. Our lips cannot speak how we loved her, Our hearts cannot tell what to say, But God only knows how we miss her In our home that is lonely today. Loved with a love beyond all telling, Missed with a grief beyond all tears. - Thinking of you on your Birthday, love Darren, Tammy and grandchildren Mam, Your needs were simple, Your wants were few, If your family were happy So were you. A heart of gold, A life so true, Loved & respected By all you knew. Always willing, helpful & kind, What lovely memories You left behind. - Love on your birthday, from Garrett, Chantelle, Tommy, Emma & Allie God called your name so softly, That only you could hear, And no-one heard the footsteps Of angels drawing near, It broke our hearts to lose you But you did not go alone, For part of us went with you, The day God called you home, You’re always close beside us In everything you do, You were our greatest treasure, God’s gift to us was you. - Happy Birthday Mam, love Tracey, Dee and Tegan.

3rd Anniversary MICHAEL DOOLEY

In loving memory of Michael Dooley, late of 2 Oriel Square, Lismore Lawn, Waterford, who died 5th October 2018. Mass offered in Sacred Heart Ferrybamk 9th October at 7pm.

In remembrance of of our beloved son, Luke Ryan, late of Clifton Court & St. Herblain Pk. who died on the 12th October 2012 aged 24. Mass offered on Saturday 9th October Sacred Heart Church, The Folly at 6.30 pm . Our hearts are full of memories, We treasure them with care, The way you had to leave us Luke, Will always seem unfair, Though life goes on without you, It will never be the same. For you are forever with us, And with pride we speak your name. -Loving and missed always, Mom and Dad You’re my youngest brother Whom I’ve adored since we were small, And for me the day you left us Was the saddest time of all. But all the memories that we shared, From when you were a boy, Have only filled my heart With happiness and joy. You grew up Luke, And proved to be A man both fair and true, And every day throughout my life, I will always think of you -Missing you everyday bro, Donnamarie and Brother-in-Law Paul There is not a day that goes by, That you’re not on my mind, I’ve wiped away so many tears, I’ve almost gone blind, I try so hard to move on with my life, You’d better be up there buddy, Looking after me, the kids, and the wife, That call in the night I’ll never forget, When our poor mother told me with deepest regret, My little brother was gone Your life cut too short, You’re in my heart always bro, You’re in every thought. - Love Wesley and Anne, Will & Saoirse As kids we lived together, We fought, we laughed, we cried, We did not always show the love,

That we both had inside, We shared our dreams and plans, And some secrets too, All the memories we share are what bonds me now to you, We grew to find we have a love that is very strong today, It’s a love shared by our family that will never fade away, You are my brother not by choice, But by the nature of our birth, I could not have chosen a better one, You were the best on earth. - Love from Canada, Dale, Jenn & Tadgh. . Our fun trips to the park, bringing our bikes up the track, We wish we could have Our Uncle Luke back. Now we close our eyes and think of you near, our special angel, watching over us here. - Lots of love and hugs, your godson Rhys and nephew Morgan . Deep in our hearts lies a picture of my Grandson Luke, Whom I love and miss so much, Wishing he was here with us today. - Your heartbroken Grandad Sackie .

Luke, No matter how life changes, No matter what we do, A special place within our hearts, Is always kept for you.

- Love and miss you everyday, Your Aunt Vivian, brother in law Jimmy and family. Those we love don’t go away, They walk beside us everyday, Unseen, unheard, but always near, Still loved, still missed, still very dear. - Love Uncle Kevin, Therèse and Jack Missing you always Luke. - Loving and missing you always Luke, Gran Fitzgerald and Family

Missing you on your first anniversary. A Dad’s love is special, beyond compare, You only know the meaning when he is no longer there, A special time, a special face, A special Dad I can’t replace, With an aching heart I whisper low. I miss you Dad and love you so. - From your loving daughter Michelle and son in law Gavin. You gave us everything you had Your time, your love & care, You never asked for anything And you were always there, Your needs were simple Your wants were few, If your family were happy So were you, A heart of gold, a life so true, Love and respected by all you knew. - Love from your grandchildren Dale, Aaron and Katie. A smile for all, a heart of gold, One of the best this world could hold, Never selfish, aways kind, A beautiful memory left behind. -Love from your brother Sean and family.

National Singing Week Have you missed singing with your group or choir during Covid? Or have you always nurtured a desire to sing and now decided it’s time to finally do it? If so, keep an eye out for National Singing Week, which is taking place from 10th – 17th October. Hosted by Sing Ireland, the organisation that develops, supports, and promotes all forms of group singing across the island of Ireland, in association with Mental Health

Ireland, National Singing Week aims to celebrate the return of group singing in Ireland. Due to Covid 19, Sing Ireland has implemented new ways of working to keep Ireland singing, with the introduction of new protocols designed to provide choirs and singing groups with the guidance they require to safely return to group singing activities. With studies showing that singing as part of a group can provide a wide range of wellness and mental health benefits, such as improving breathing, posture, and muscle tension as well as lessening stress and anxiety, Sing Ireland is delighted to team up with

Mental Health Ireland for National Singing Week 2021. So, if you’ve always nurtured a desire to sing in a group or choir or just make contact with other singing enthusiasts and music-lovers in your locality, you’ll find the full list of choirs in your local area, alongside Sing Ireland’s protective measures for National Singing Week, on www.singireland.ie. An Audience with Jackie Mc Namara On Saturday October 23rd at 7pm at The Roanmore Centre, Cleaboy Road, Waterford spend an evening with the legend that is Jackie McNamara and hear first-hand about his

amazing life and career. ‘His Name is McNamara’ is the riveting story of Jackie’s success and survival: from the glorious trophy-laden decade at Celtic including his time as club captain and his international caps to his dramatic departure in ’05 and subsequent spells with Wolves, Aberdeen, Falkirk and Partick Thistle. Jackie pulls no punches giving us the inside track on a glittering career as well as the battling qualities needed to succeed at the highest level of the game. And it was on those qualities that he drew when most needed … when his life was threatened by a brain aneurysm in early 2020.

The event will take place on the 9th of October starting at 12 noon.
