County Tipperary Community Games offer their sincere sympathy to the family of Peggy Connolly, Monaghan, Former PRO of National Community Games. I had the pleasure of working with Peggy for several years at National Finals and various other events. A wonderful lady who is another great loss to the games. May her soul rest in peace.
