Tributes to Noel Dillon ahead of funeral

Tributes have been paid to Noel Dillon, a former county manager for Cork and Wexford, who will be buried today.

As a mark of respect, the mayor of Co Cork, Alan Coleman, has decided to call a special meeting in County Hall today to remember Mr Dillon, who served as county manager in Cork from 1993 to 1998.

Mr Dillon died after a short illness at Marymount Hospice. His removal took place last night from O’Connor’s Funeral Home, Wilton, to the Church of the Holy Spirit, Dennehy’s Cross.
