- KATIE GLAVIN

Thanks were extended to Avondhu Blackwater Partnershi­p this week, as former councillor and town mayor, John Murphy, commended their work in the Fermoy Famine and Military Graveyard.

Works carried out onsite by the local organisati­on include the maintenanc­e of grass and footpaths, keeping up the site’s appearance.

“It’s looking very well. They’ve done fantastic work and I want to thank Valerie Murphy and all of Avondhu Blackwater Partnershi­p. It’s very important to respect the dead. They have promised to give the grass there at least two cuts a year,” Mr Murphy said.
