So sorry to hear of the passing of des, one of lifes gents and loved by all he came into contact with. Des had a super sense of humour, a wicked sense of fun, and a brain full of knowledge in so many areas. he was a sportsman who knew all about animals and animal welfare. he knew the history of Celbridge, like his school boy prayers, loved Kildare teams and all the famous footballers he read about and followed on radio and tv.
