North Mayo community heartbroken over death of popular boy

THE funeral has taken place today of Tommy O'Donnell, Drumreagh, Clogher, Belmullet.

The very popular seven-year-old boy died peacefully at the Mayo University Hospital on Wednesday.

Predeceased by his late father Dennis, he will be sadly missed by his heartbroken family - his mother Michelle, sisters Katelyn, Megan and Shauna, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, relatives, friends, many nurses, carers and the staff and pupils on Glencastle National School, to whom deepest sympathy is extended.

His passing has evoked a sense of tremendous loss across the community.

Requiem Mass took place this afternoon in St. Joseph's Church, Binghamstown, followed by burial in Cross Cemetery.

May his gentle soul rest in peace.
