Tributes paid as Tipperary village loses one of its 'club and county greats'

Fr Sheehy's GAA Notes

We lost one of our club and county greats Eamon Keating last Tuesday morning aged 89.

Eamon was a star midfielder on the famous Burncourt/Clogheen team that won the County Junior Football title in 1960.

Eamon played for the Tipperary minor footballers and also the Tipperary senior team from 1955-1960.

Eamon went on to become our club chairman and ran a successful pub business in Clogheen for many years.

After he retired he kept in touch with his many friends in Fr Sheehy’s and was a great source of local historical knowledge.
