It is with deep sadness that Ballaghaderreen Tennis Club has learned of the passing of Josephine (Josie) Clarke. Josie was a wonderful supporter of our club over the years, and her warm presence at the courts—always there to cheer on her family—never failed to brighten our days.
We wish to extend our heartfelt condolences to our members Mary, Cathy, Tim, Jeremy, Adam and Luke, and to all the Clarke & Molloy families during this difficult time. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
May Josie Rest In Peace
