Rathbane GOLF CLUB

Reminder :-
Ladies Club Quiz night. All welcome

Quiz Night in aid of Rathbane Ladies Club - March 24th at 7.30pm. All welcome.

It is with deepest sadness that we share that one of our special lady members Tina Keyes has passed away. We were shocked to hear the news this week as we didn’t know she was unwell and had been playing golf with us all not too long ago. A fabulous golfer, so knowledgeable and helpful to everyone she encountered. As her dear friend Collette said - Tina enriched the lives of everyone she met. That was her great gift and we were blessed to know her. May her gentle soul rest in peace. Our sincere condolences to her husband Willie, children Anna, Eva and Colm and grandchildren, along with her extended family. We will miss you Tina. Rathbane Ladies Golf Club.
