Anniversary: Eamonn Burns

Friday 9th October 2020

Today we take a moment to remember Eamonn Burns on this the First Anniversary of his sudden passing. 

 

We recall a giant of a man who won two All Irelands in 1991 and 94, a man who gave of his very best every time he pulled on the Red and Black of Down. We think too of a man who stepped up and served his County again as Team Manager, Eamonn Burns was a true son of Down and we remember him today and as days go by.

 

To Sinead, to Cathal and Thomas, you are in our thoughts and prayers, you lost a husband and a father taken from us, all too soon.

 

Ar dheis de go raibh a anam.

 

Is Mise
