Fr. Paddy Keary RIP
There was great sadness and regret in our school community on Sunday morning when the news of Fr. Paddy Keary’s death was announced.
He had been the Chairperson of the Board of Management of Scoil Bhríde from 2005 until his retirement in 2019. We got to know him very well during those years and he frequently visited the school and participated in various school functions.
The sacrament classes in particular, 2nd and 6th got to know him well and he in turn enjoyed interacting with them as they prepared together for their special day.
The highlight of the school year for 6th class was their Graduation Mass in June and Fr. Paddy always made it a memorable occasion for the pupils and their parents.
He was kind and thoughtful and gentle in his approach to all.
As Chairperson of the Board of Management he was thorough and supportive of all school initiatives. He had a great interest in school developments and all of the various school programmes being implemented. Though always quietly spoken he was always focused on the issues in hand, amenable and decisive when required and long before it was fashionable his priority was always the wellbeing of the pupils and the school staff.
Our school community wishes to extend our condolences to Fr. Paddy’s extended family, to the Bishop of Meath Bishop Tom Deenihan, the priests of the Meath diocese and the parishioners of Clara.
Guímid solas na bhflaithis ar a anam dílis uasal agus leaba i measc na naomh uilig dó.
