The funeral mass in St Agnes Church, Crumlin, was attended by friends and family, including members of Robbie Keane’s local club, Crumlin United. Among those attending was Jimmy Deering, one of the club’s founders. He has been credited by Brian Kerr as the man who introduced him to football management.
