Niall Mc Adam – Last Saturday at lunch time the unbelievable sad news began filtering through that our County Board delegate Niall had passed away at the tender age of 39. Down through the years Niall coached at all levels and even played a little. His last Drumhowan task last week was to hand over the National Draw Tickets to our Treasurer John and to tell us all to get selling. While all the club will miss him we cannot express in words how his family must feel at this sad time.At this point we would like to extend our sympathies to his wife Roisin, twin sons Sean & Oisin , father Pat, brothers Donal and Lorcan, nieces, nephews and all his relations and friends. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam dilís.
