COURSING LOTTO
The following numbers were drawn on Tuesday 3rd July in the Ballyheigue & District Coursing Club Lotto: 4-16-20-22. Jackpot was not won.
The €50 winner was Joe Slattery, C/o Diarmuid. The €25 winners were: Maureen O’Mahony, C/o W.S.; Joe and Mary Quilter, C/o Macs; Richard Keogh, C/o Sean. Next week’s Jackpot €9,600. to all the family relatives of the late Nora (Minnie) Enright R.I.P. of Main Street, Ballylongford who died on Saturday 7th July last. Minnie as she was more affectionately known was indeed a very good natured, hard working woman with a fabulous sense of humour, who always catered for the needs of others more so than herself. A nurse by profession she indeed came to the rescue of many a patient over the years. If anything happened to anybody or if somebody met with an accident during the 1960’s and early 70’s it would be the case of rush that patient to Minnie Enright.
But in recent years as Shanagolden and Ballylongford seized to operate Bingo, she travelled to Tarbert and Moyvane to keep up her interest. Minnie’s life was in turmoil when she lost her beloved Paul O’ Sullivan R.I.P. some years back. But she coped until her health began to decline and after her most recent trip to hospital she had to opt for the care of a Nursing Home. Oaklands was her residence for the last few years and it was there on Saturday morning last that she got the call that the good Lord that he needed her upstairs and so we have lost a wonderful woman and friend.
Minnie will be sadly missed by her loving brother Teddy (Florida), sister Teresa (New Jersey), sister-in-law Kathleen (Carrig Lea, Ballybunion), nephews, nieces, cousins, extended family, relatives, neighbours and wide circle of friends.
Minnies body lay in repose at at Lynch’s Funeral Home, Ballylongford, on Monday evening last. Requiem Mass on Tuesday, at 11am at St. Michael’s Church, Ballylongford. followed by interment at Lislaughtin Abbey, Ballylongford.
Sympathy is also extended to the Family of the late Marie Kissane (née Finucane) of Laraha, Asdee who died on Saturday last July 7th she is pre deceased by her late husband John, deeply regretted by her daughters Elma (Dublin), Margie (Abbeyfeale), Bernadette (Kilrush), Maura (Cork) and Deirdre (Tralee), grandchildren, sons in law, cousins, extended family and a large circle of friends. Removal took place on Sunday evening July 8th from Finucane’s Funeral Home, Moyvane to St. Mary’s Church, Asdee, Requiem Mass took place on Monday at 11am with Burial afterwards in Lislaughtin Abbey, Ballylongford.
