Fabian was my first team manager in the early 80's - the Bavarian Youths in Berlin that never happened, but we were there! Both Fabian and Breda Synott (RIP) earned all our respect on this trip, caring for a very energetic group of 10 athletes (boys and girls). WE tested their managerial skills and had the most memorable trip! In the years to follow, Fabian replicated his wonderful care and respect on so many occasions! He will be fondly remembered by so many!

May Fabian's gentle soul, rest in peace! 🙏

Sincere sympathy to you Diane on the passing of you dear dad. I always enjoyed bumping into Fabian on his many walks along the Rathcline road where he always stopped for a friendly chat and to tell a story or two about the good old days. I have so many fond memories of heading off in the back of Fabian’s minibus to cross country running. We would often be getting back on the bus covered head to toe in mud but Fabian wouldn’t bat an eyelid. His kindness and giving so freely of his time will always be remembered by us all as will his very distinctive voice on the megaphone during the Community games every year. Rest in Peace Fabian.

Sincere condolences to you Diane on the death of your beloved dad, a truly remarkable man by all accounts.
My first encounter with Fabian was somewhat different. As we walked back together to my car after a poetry reading in the library he recited these lines from his favourite poem, The House With Nobody In It,

" When a house has done what a house should do,
A house that has sheltered life,
That has put its loving wooden arms
Around a man and his wife."

Memorable indeed.
Rest peacefully Fabian.

When I think of Fabian I smile and bucket loads of happy memories come flooding in. Fabian was one of life's legend and he will be sorely missed.
I will never forget all those dark,wet evenings running in Maddens fields, up & down those dreaded hills. Fabian had a master plan for us and we would only go through that hardship for him. We were finally rewarded with a Connaught Cross country medal which I still pull out to this day, at least once a year and smile! Fabian always believed in us.
Thank you for the fabulous memories. Rest easy x
