It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our great friend and club stalwart Siobhan (Shuey) Flaherty. Fondly known as “Shuey” she was an integral player for Barna Ladies, and a valued member of Barna GAA Club.
Anyone who met Shuey quickly learned that there are always laughs to be shared. Her infectious laughter and the glint of devilment in her eye put everyone that knew her in good form. She was always up for a laugh or a joke and you would always be met with a big smile.
We all have great memories of Shuey's exciting plays, blazing speed and bravery on the pitch. Shuey always gave her teammates a lot of confidence playing alongside her and Siobhan always gave her heart and soul when she pulled on the Bearna jersey. There are no words to describe how much we will miss her in the community.
The Flaherty family are steeped in tradition of CLG Bhearna and Barna Ladies Football club both playing and coaching. The club extends its sincere condolences to Siobhan’s son Leighton and partner Adrian, her mother Norah, D.D., Maura, Sinéad, Aine, Sheila and Noreen and all the Flaherty family.
Bean uasal a bhí Siobhan ar chuile bhealach. Cúis mhór bróin dúinn go bhfuil ár gcara Siobhan imithe ar shlí na fírinne, suaimhneas síoraí di.🙏
