STEPHEN GREENE – A TRIBUTE
The news of Stephen’s passing came as a great shock to the members of the club and all who knew him. He was a man of many talents which he wasn’t slow in relating to anybody who would listen, but he actually was!
His biggest passion was hurling for Mount Sion in his younger days and his devotion to the club long after he retired from the game. The medals and trophies that he won are testament to his prowess on the field, by all accounts he was a force to be reckoned with. When Stephen took up golf, it got the same treatment as the hurling – he aimed to be better and became a fine golfer.
In 2013 I became Stephen’s partner in crime, as we were both President’s of the club. It was a whirlwind year of activities where Stephen endeared himself to everyone as he was the life and soul of every occasion, he will be sadly missed by all who had the pleasure of his company which I am now so delighted to have been part of.
His funeral on Tuesday was testament to the regard in which he was held, his coffin was flanked by members of Mount Sion Hurling Club from Thompsons Funeral Home and Waterford Fire Brigade led the hearse to the doors of St.Paul’s Church. Guards of Honour were provided by Mount Sion Hurling Club, Waterford Fire Services and Gold Coast Golf Club.
Our heartfelt condolences to his loving partner Irene, his son Paul, daughter Lorraine, grandchildren and the extended Greene family, his many friends and neighbours both in Waterford and Kinsale on your sad loss. Rest In Peace Stephen, you were a rare diamond who will be fondly remembered.
