Noreen Hughes (née Dennehy, Murphy’s Terrace) passed away on the 31st of March 2018 in London. She is sadly missed by her family and wide circle of friends.
Her family are bringing her ashes home to Millstreet, and there will be a funeral mass at 12 noon on Saturday June 30th 2018, followed by internment of ashes in St. Mary’s cemetery.
We have been asked to please make people aware, and especially younger kids that it is very dangerous to cycle on the narrow footpaths in town . One lady who contacted us has been hit once coming out a shop door, and two older customers had near misses and could have been badly hurt.
It is actually an offence to cycle on a footpath unless you are entering or exiting a property, and it comes with an on the spot €40 fine. However, Cycling Ireland state that “if the roads are dangerous and narrow, we would prefer to see children cycling on footpaths than not cycling at all,”… so just be careful please.
