One last packed house planned for Ronnie’s farewell
The Church of the Holy Rosary in his adopted home of Greystones, Co Wicklow, can’t cater for the Christmas crowds, let alone a farewell to a legend, so an overflow facility is being set up in the adjacent parish centre with a big screen to relay the proceedings.
But one group of men are sure of space to say their goodbyes. An area is being kept clear at the top of the church for the last surviving members of the Dubliners to give Ronnie a send-off in the best way they know how.
