With great sadness we learned of the passing of a great friend of the doggie industry namely Kathleen Murphy of Greyhound & Petworld. Kathleen was loved by all who came across her. She possessed a fantastic personality and a genuineness second to none. Always welcoming with a smile and so helpful to everyone. Kathleen, Dominic and Liam established a valuable dynasty in Abbeyfeale and at many tracks but their contribution to the Greyhound industry and presence at the National Coursing Meeting was most welcome and always appreciated. To Dominic, daughter Aoife, son Liam, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, we extend our sincerest condolences. Rest in Peace Kathleen and thank you for your friendship.

95 years going about his business in a kind, dignified, grateful and courteous manner. Johnny Quigley was the quintessential doggie man. From his days delivering news papers around Kerry, Johnny made great friends for life. A great supporter of our meeting where he frequently ran dogs and whether he was beaten in the 1st rd or went further he was always appreciative to get a run. He ran up the DTS in 1979 with Woodview Prince, beaten by Davy Can Run in Lixnaw. He will be sorely missed especially by him family, sons Brendan, John, Patrick and, his adored grandchildren and great-grandchildren, daughters-in-law Angela, Trish, Michelle, Patricia and Pat but also the doggie fraternity. The Kingdom of Heaven is receiving a great man. Rest in Peace Johnny. Condolences to all Johnny's family.
