ANNUAL MASS FOR DECEASED MEMBERS
Our annual Mass for deceased members took place last Friday night at the Goldcoast Hotel. The Mass was celebrated by Fr. Ned Hasset, with readings and prayers delivered by members of both the men’s and ladies’ clubs. After the Mass, refreshments were served providing a warm and welcoming atmosphere for members and friends to chat and reminisce. A thank you to the Hotel staff for their service, and to everyone who helped organise this meaningful event.
