Sudden passing of Foley a ‘catastrophic’ blow for Shannon RFC

The mood within Shannon RFC yesterday was one of total devastation following the news that Anthony Foley had died suddenly.

Incoming president Oliver ‘Sonny’ Kiely admitted that Foley’s sudden passing had been “catastrophic” news.

“I can speak for everyone in the club, I’m sure, when I say that we cannot believe how much this appalling news means to the club, but our feelings mean nothing because everything now is all about the family,” he said.
