COMMUNITY NOTICES

ST. MICHAEL’S CEMETERY: The Graveyard Committee wish to thank all of you who contributed so generously to the Collection towards the running costs which took place at the Annual Cemetery Mass on Tuesday last. A total of €2,100.00 was collected and this helps to defray the many costs associated with the general maintenance and up-keep of the cemetery right throughout the year. As the weather was inclement last Tuesday evening, some may not have got the opportunity to contribute. The Parish Office has very kindly offered to facilitate anybody else wishing to contribute by allowing a special box in the Office over the next two weeks. Well done to everybody who made an effort to make the cemetery look so well. Thank you all again. Much appreciated.
