Jimmy Geary 100th Birthday - Best Wishes
August 27, 2020
Carrigtwohill GAA would like to offer its heartfelt congratulations to Jimmy Geary from Gortroe who celebrates his 100th birthday today, August 27th. Jimmy, with his fellow Gortroe man Willie Sloane, played senior hurling with Carrigtwohill in the late 1930s/early 1940s. Jimmy served in the army at the time and regularly cycled to Carrig for training and matches.
The club extends its best wishes to Jimmy and his family as they celebrate this fantastic milestone. It is a testament to Jimmy and people like him that we can look forward to Carrig playing senior hurling championship this Saturday, 80 years after Jimmy wore the famous blue and gold in the same competition. That is a tradition and legacy we should be very proud of.
Breithlá Shona Jimmy. Táimid fíor buíoch. Carrig Abú.
