FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS FOR OLLIE FAVIER

In preparation for us all to be able to attend Ollie’s home to offer our condolences safely and with as minimal disruption to his family as possible the following arrangements have been made.

Tuesday evening:
A park and ride system will operate from Kennedys Pet Farm, The Kerryway Bar and Glenflesk GAA club. Shuttle buses will operate from each of these 3 areas to bring people to the house and back to the car parks on a continuous basis from 4pm until 8pm.

The loughguittane road to the house will be closed to traffic from the N22 (Cork rd side) from the turn off to Glenflesk National School and only the shuttle buses will be permitted through. We ask people not to walk the road or park anywhere else besides the 3 above mentioned car parks. We are aware that large numbers of people are expected to attend and we ask people to respect the directions of local stewards who will be assisting in helping this farewell to Ollie run as smoothly as possible.
