Nenagh Éire Óg Notes 30 March 2023

Ger McCarthy RIP

All in Nenagh Éire Óg were truly shocked and saddened to hear of the untimely passing of Ger McCarthy at the weekend.

Ger was a lifelong and passionate supporter of Nenagh Éire Óg – he hurled with the club in his younger years, notably winning North and County U16 titles in 1979. Over the past number of years Ger got involved as mentor and manager with both juvenile and adult teams, successes here included guiding the U16s in 2017 and Juniors in 2021 to North hurling titles. He was also a tireless worker on the Juvenile Committee for many years. Ger was especially proud of son Conor who won U20 Munster and All Ireland titles with Tipperary in 2019 and who this year is a member of the Tipperary senior panel.

Nenagh Éire Óg have undoubtedly lost a great clubman and Ger’s passion and enthusiasm for the club will be sadly missed by all. 

To his wife Annette, daughter Laura, son Conor, father Jimmy, sisters, brother and the extended McCarthy and Moloney families we offer our deepest sympathies.
